British Syrian poet of Kurdish origin Amir Darwish first came to the United Kingdom in 2003 hanging underneath a lorry on a cross-channel ferry, having fled Syria years earlier after writing a pro-Kurdish poem. His debut poetry collection Don’t Forget the Couscous is a personal reflection on love, nostalgia and what it means to be Muslim. (Photo credit: Kev Howard.)
