тАЬ[A] reminder of just how horrible nuclear weapons are.тАЭтАФThe Wall Street Journal
тАЬA devastating read that highlights manтАЩs capacity to wreak destruction, but in which one also catches a glimpse of all that is best about people.тАЭтАФSan Francisco Chronicle
тАЬA┬аpoignant and complex picture of the second atomic bombтАЩs enduring physical and psychological tolls. Eyewitness accounts are visceral and haunting. . . . But the bookтАЩs biggest achievement is its treatment of the aftershocks in the decades since 1945.тАЭ┬атАФThe New Yorker
The enduring impact of a nuclear bomb, told through the stories of those who survived: necessary reading as the threat of nuclear war emerges again.
┬а
On August 9, 1945, three days after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, the United States dropped a second atomic bomb on Nagasaki, a small port city on JapanтАЩs southernmost island. An estimated 74,000 people died within the first five months, and another 75,000 were injured.
Nagasaki┬аtakes readers from the morning of the bombing to the city today, telling the first-hand experiences of five survivors, all of whom were teenagers at the time of the devastation. Susan┬аSouthard has spent years interviewing┬аhibakusha┬а(тАЬbomb-affected peopleтАЭ) and researching the physical, emotional, and social challenges of post-atomic life. She weaves together dramatic eyewitness accounts with searing analysis of the policies of censorship and denial that colored much of what was reported about the bombing both in the United States and Japan.
┬а
A gripping narrative of human resilience,┬аNagasaki┬аwill help shape public┬аdiscussion and debate over one of the most controversial wartime acts in history.
