Description A-bomb Drawings by Survivors
[Artist's comments]Excerpted
Bloated bodies covered the surface of the river.
They must have jumped in the river to escape their suffering. I think many were soldiers. The surface was covered with bloated, floating bodies of people who died in the water. When I look at the riverbank, I can’t help but remember how I felt then.
