| Description | We must flee quickly! August 6, 1945, just past 8 am Hisae Kagawa (37 at time of bombing, 67 at time of drawing) [Notes from the artist] I left the house clutching my child, but I don't remember if 30 minutes had passed, or one hour, or if it had been longer than that. Outside, the heavy sky was reminiscent of a solar eclipse, and the eerie silence seemed otherworldly. I thought we needed to escape immediately. |
