Behrouz Bouchani, Kurdish journalist and indefinitely detained refugee on Manus Island, has won Australia’s largest literary prize for his non-fiction work: No Friend But The Mountains, writing from Manus prison.

Naturally he couldn’t attend because he has been detained for the past 5 years and counting on Manus island where many refugees are still stuck in perpetual limbo, unsure if there’s any hope in their future.

The book, which details the horrors and daily life in detention, was written on a smuggled in phone, crafted one text message at a time, and meticulously translated into English. It won $25,000 for the Victorian Premiere’s Literary Away and $100,000 for the Victorian prize for Literature.

I’ve read this book and it is phenomenal. Not just because it’s a harrowing examination of the unjust system of detention that our government has forced refugees fleeing persecution into, but it’s so intricately and poetically written. You’d think that the method of writing would limit Behrouz’s language and descriptiveness but perhaps because of the constant restrictions of his freedom he has worked hard to push an intricate yet bleak painting of his situation.

Honestly you should read this book. You should buy it right now and read it. It’s one of the best books I read last year and I cannot recommend it enough. This man continues to fight against the oppressive and torturous conditions our government has forced him - and many other innocent people - into. His twitter account is also a good source of first hand information about the cruelty and brutality of indefinite detention.

“You don’t have to say thank you, it’s their job.”

YOU ARE LITERALLY THE WORST PERSON

[panicmixiescreamhurl]

Why would you teach your child to be rude and ungrateful. Literally why.

[elliotofrph-blog]

Fun fact: My mom taught me to thank EVERYONE. I thank the bus driver, I thank the guy at the Taco Bell drive-through window…I THANK THE TACO BELL MACHINE THE PERSON TALKS THROUGH. The sad thing is…almost everyone I know thinks this is weird. I’ve had people look at me funny because I thank the bus driver for being there because if he wasn’t I couldn’t get home safely. My friends question me because I’m thanking Taco-Bell guy because where else am I going to get cheap, crappy, delicious food for 3 drunk ass people at 2am? It’s called being a human being. Try it.

[zofrph-deactivated20160306]

If someone does something, anything from doing dishes to picking up something you dropped to holding the door for you, you say thank you. They did something for you they didn’t have to so they deserve a thank you. It’s called appreciating the community you live in and the people around you.

All of this.
