Kurdish novelist, journalist and asylum-seeker Behrouz Boochani has arrived in New Zealand after being released from detention on Manus Island. This time last year, Boochani spoke to The Wire's Annie Hastwell from Manus about his book No Friend But the Mountains, his fascinating and heart-wrenching story, translated to English from laboriously tapped-out WhatsApp messages in Farsi.
