Winner for Victorian Premiers Literary Award Victorian Prize for Literature 2019 Our government jailed his body, but his soul remained that of a free man. Richard Flanagan In 2013, Kurdish journalist Behrouz Boochani was illegally and indefinitely detained on Manus Island. This book is the result. Written on a smuggled mobile phone and translated from Farsi, it is a voice of witness, an act of survival. A lyric first-hand account. A cry of resistance. A vivid portrait through six years of incarceration and exile that - against all the odds - became an award-winning national bestseller.
