Description

Starting a few months before Hiroshima was destroyed by an atomic bomb in 1945, this four-volume saga shows life in Japan after years of war and privations. Volume 4 resumes nine days after the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, as Gen and his mother continue to struggle for food, shelter and water. Their indomitable human spirits prevail amidst chaos and vast human suffering. Though confronted with the most despicable aspects of humankind, Gen acts with love and compassion.

Author Biography:

Nakazawa was born in Hiroshima, and was six years old when the city was destroyed by an atomic bomb in 1945. All of his family members who had not been evacuated died in the bombing, except for his mother, and an infant sister who died several weeks after the bombing. Compelled to tell his story in the memory of his family, Keiji Nakazawa is best known for his epic tragic history Barefoot Gen.
