Boochani Behrouz - Freedom Only Freedom The Prison Writings Of Behrouz Boochani - Hardcover

Binding: Hardcover
Description: Over six years of imprisonment in Australia's offshore migrant detention centre the Kurdish - Iranian journalist and writer Behrouz Boochani bore personal witness to the suffering and degradation inflicted on him and his fellow refugees culminating eventually in his prize - winning book No Friend but the Mountains. In the articles essays and poems he wrote while detained he emerged as both a tenacious campaigner and activist as well as a deeply humane voice which reflects the indignity and plight of the many thousands of detained migrants across the world. In this book Boochani's collected writings are combined with essays from experts on migration refugee rights politics and literature. Together they provide a moving creative and challenging account of not only one writer's harrowing experience and inspiring resilience but the wider structures of violence which hold thousands of human beings in a state of misery in migrant camps throughout Western nation - states and beyond.
