‘No Man Is an Island is essential reading for anyone who assumes they understand what the asylum seeker issue is all about, regardless of their opinion.’

SYDNEY MORNING HERALD

​

‘Dumont has a way of demonstrating the humanity of the refugees, but also of the Australians who have them in their charge, in a way that could reach the naysayers in ways the stereotypes of political discourse cannot.’

THE AUSTRALIAN

​

‘Dumont is a remarkably honest and thoughtful observer … Dumont’s writing is evocative but never obtrusive … she simply recounts, in honest, clear-eyed prose, what she saw and heard and did during her two years working in detention centres. It is all she needs to say.’
