A recent interview with the author brings his life up to the present. His trenchant hostility to Japanese imperialism, the emperor and the emperor system, and U.S. policy adds important nuance to the debate over Hiroshima. Despite the grimness of his early life, Nakazawa never succumbs to pessimism or defeatism. His trademark optimism and activism shine through in this inspirational work.--Book jacket. 520 $a "This compelling autobiography tells the life story of famed manga artist Nakazawa Keiji. Born in Hiroshima in 1939, Nakazawa was six years old when on August 6, 1945, the United States dropped the atomic bomb. His gritty and stunning account of the horrific aftermath is powerfully told through the eyes of a child who lost most of his family and neighbors. In eminently readable and beautifully translated prose, the narrative continues through the brutally difficult years immediately after the war, his art apprenticeship in Tokyo, his pioneering "atomic-bomb" manga, and the creation of Barefoot Gen, the classic graphic novel based on Nakazawa's experiences before, during, and after the bomb."--Publisher's description. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 600 10 $a Nakazawa, Keiji. 600 10 $a Nakazawa, Keiji. $t Hadashi no Gen. 600 10 $a Nakazawa, Keiji $x Childhood and youth. 600 10 $a Nakazawa, Keiji $x Family. 600 17 $a Nakazawa, Keiji. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00084775 630 07 $a Hadashi no Gen (Nakazawa, Keiji) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01783516 600 17 $a Nakazawa, Keiji $d 1939-2012 $2 gnd 650 0 $a Cartoonists $z Japan $v Biography. 650 0 $a Comic books, strips, etc $z Japan $x History. 650 0 $a Atomic bomb victims $z Hiroshima-shi $z Hiroshima-shi $v Biography. 651 0 $a Hiroshima-shi (Japan) $x History $y Bombardment, 1945 $v Personal narratives. 651 0 $a Hiroshima-shi (Japan) $v Biography. 651 0 $a Japan $v Biography. 650 7 $a Atomic bomb victims. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00820593 650 7 $a Cartoonists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00848081 650 7 $a Comic books, strips, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869145 650 7 $a Families. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01728849 651 7 $a Japan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204082 651 7 $a Japan $z Hiroshima-shi. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01209723 650 7 $a Atombombenabwurf auf Hiroshima $2 gnd 648 7 $a 1945 $2 fast 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423843 655 7 $0 (DE-588)4133254-4 $a Erlebnisbericht $2 gnd 655 7 $a Autobiografie. $2 gnd 655 7 $0 (DE-588)4133254-4 $a Erlebnisbericht $2 gnd-content 700 1 $a Minear, Richard H., $e translator. $e translator. 830 0 $a Asian voices (Rowman and Littlefield, Inc.) 941 $a 1 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508021922.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC5E2A6A90F111EA86A69E4897128E48 994 $a 92 $b UINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
