Keiji Nakazawa (Author, Artist), Art Spiegelman (Writer of introduction), Alan Gleason (Editor), Colin Turner (Editor), Project Gen (Organization) (Translator)
An all-new, unabridged translation of Keiji Nakazawa's account of the Hiroshima bombing and its aftermath, drawn from his own experiences.

The graphic novel provides an honest and emotional portrayal of the various struggles of his family and other survivors against overwhelming odds. Introductory essays add additional information
