I really liked this book as it gave a pretty personal view of the first a-bomb dropped and a few people who experienced it. It was interesting to see how these six people got on with their lives and what happened to the city afterward. I really recommend this for anyone but especially history buffs like me who want to read about a more personal view of Hiroshima.

While we often hear of the devastation caused by the atomic bomb, this provides some thought on what happened to the survivors.
