Hiroshima Notes is a moving statement from Japan's most celebrated
living writer on the meaning of the Hiroshima bombing and its
terrible legacy. Kenzaburo Oe's account of the lives of the many
victims of Hiroshima - the young, the old, women and children - and
the valiant efforts of the doctors who care for them, both
immediately after the atomic blast and in the years to come,
reveals the horrific extent of the devastation wrought. In
Hiroshima Notes, Oe offers a sensitive portrayal of the people of
the city - the 'human face' in the midst of atomic destruction. The
lives Oe describes and his insights into the nature of human
dignity are an indictment of the Nuclear Age as powerful as the
ruins in the Hiroshima Peace Park.
