Description | I want you to live 1,100m from the hypocenter Nobori-cho August 6, 1945, around 9:00 am Fumiko Shinohara (37 at time of bombing, 67 at time of drawing) [Notes from the artist] The houses around ours had all collapsed and the flames were rising. My husband held our 4-year old and I pleaded for our 2-year old, whose brains were oozing from her head, to live…barefoot, we ran over power lines, telephone poles, and collapsed houses towards Sentei Garden. |
