Description
In mid-2004, David Corlett travelled to meet asylum seekers whom Australia had returned to Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan, and the result is Following Them Home: The Fate of the Returned Asylum Seekers.
His intention was to witness first-hand the circumstances into which Australia returns people it deems not to need protection.
In a series of vivid travelogue-style accounts and personal stories, Corlett charts the tide of contemporary history and how the Western world can treat those adrift in it.
