Description | A child walking and eating a red tomato 800m from the hypocenter, Hatchobori (Naka-ku) August 6, 1945, 5:00 p.m. Tadao Inoue (35 at time of bombing, 64 at time of drawing) Explanation in picture In the Hatchobori area, I saw a little boy around three years old. Burned completely black, he tottered along eating a red tomato. Nowhere on his body-front, back, left or right-could I see unburnt skin. Where had he been and what had he been doing for the last 10 hours? |
