Synopsis

In 2013, Kurdish journalist Behrouz Boochani was unlawfully held on Manus Island, a refugee detention center off Australia's coast, where he has remained. This book, painstakingly written on a mobile phone and translated from Farsi, serves as his testimony. It is a firsthand account of survival and resistance, offering a vivid look into five years of incarceration and exile.
