I finished this book on Aug 9th, the anniversary of the Nagasaki bombing. The book’s stories, especially of Sachiko’s siblings, still linger with me a week later.
Over twenty years ago I read Hiroshima, and that book had a life-changing impact on me. I couldn’t get it out of my thoughts, or my dreams. While Sachiko didn’t have as much of an impact, the book reignited my interest in peace and against nuclear arms, and the personification of Sachiko’s story of survival and perseverance brought me to tears.
Overall this is just great book, with effective narration.
