Helpful Score: 1
I feel like this book did an excellent job of opening my eyes to the destruction that the bomb dropped on Hiroshima really caused. I admit, the characters can be really confusing, especially in the first and fifth chapters, but in the end it all makes you feel sick to your stomach. The horror that these Japanese citizens had to face.
I am still undecided on whether or not that I believe the bomb should've been dropped. I feel like yes, by it being dropped it was pretty clear that nothing like this should happen again. But at the same time, after taking a Japanese class for two years, I really feel for them and feel like they didn't deserve that.
I think it's amazing that in this book, they are thanking the Americans and they are dying for their Emperor. I love how passionate and loving they are of their country.
This is a must-read book
