Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, built at what was once the
hypocenter of an atomic blast, is the most visible sign of the
city's renaissance as a force for peace in 21st century politics.
But it is not the only reminder of the spirit of Hiroshima. Less
well-known are the scores of "survivors" dotting the metropolitan
landscape. These treasured trees, shrubs, and groves date from
before the bombing on August 6th 1945. They were spared from
annihilation, and are now carefully tended by the schools, homes,
temples, and shrines entrusted by fate with their care. Based on a
three-year stay in the city by the authors, this pictorial journey
into the heart of Hiroshima documents more than 50 sites and 75
trees. There are maps, bilingual place names and addresses,
snapshots of local culture, and overviews of each species of plant.
Never-before published translations of essays by the a-bomb
survivor Tamiki Hara are also included as meditations on the
meaning of peace in difficult times.
