Book Description

On August 6, 1945, Hiroshima was destroyed by the first atom bomb ever dropped on a city. This book, John Hersey's journalistic masterpiece, tells what happened on that day. Told through the memories of survivors, this timeless, powerful and compassionate document has become a classic "that stirs the conscience of humanity" (The New York Times).

Almost four decades after the original publication of this celebrated book, John Hersey went back to Hiroshima in search of the people whose stories he had told. His account of what he discovered about them is now the eloquent and moving final chapter of Hiroshima.

When the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, few could have anticipated its potential for devastation. Pulitzer prize-winning author John Hersey recorded the stories of Hiroshima residents shortly after the explosion and, in 1946, Hiroshima was published, giving the world first-hand accounts from people who had survived it. The words of Miss Sasaki, Dr. Fujii, Mrs. Nakamara, Father Kleinsorg, Dr. Sasaki, and the Reverend Tanimoto gave a face to the statistics that saturated the media and solicited an overwhelming public response. Whether you believe the bomb made the difference in the war or that it should never have been dropped, "Hiroshima" is a must read for all of us who live in the shadow of armed conflict.

From Boston Sunday Herald August 1995

"This is an important audio because it captures one of the most shattering events of our century, just as it explains the mind-sets of the people it most affected...Hiroshima is worth listening to just for the weird story of a survivor who wound up on the TV program, 'This is Your Life,' with one of the crew members of the Enola Gay."

From Library Journal

On the basis of a return visit 40 years after the dropping of the bomb, Hersey has written a final chapter'' to one of the most important books to come out of World War II. The new chapter follows a reprint of the original text on the dropping of the first atomic bomb, and is written in the same spare, objective style. In it, Hersey brings up to date the lives of six survivors he covered so brilliantly in 1946. Once again he evokes the humdrum and the surreal elements in the aftermath of the bomb, and with eloquent simplicity he includes statements of other nations' nuclear tests. Compelling, unforgettable, and more timely than ever, this is absolutely essential for collections from junior high on. Robert H. Donahugh, Youngstown and Mahoning Cty. P.L., Ohio

From AudioFile

The fates of six victims are portrayed vividly in Hersey's classic account of the first atomic bomb. This edition contains a final chapter, written 40 years later, in which Hersey follows up on these six "Hibakusha," or "explosion-affected persons." Edward Asner speaks for many characters, yet his voice is that of the Hiroshima citizen caught up in day-to-day survival. He conveys the fear, confusion, pain and resignation of individuals dealing with a cataclysmic force. With subtle, understated delivery, Asner powerfully evokes the time, place and plight of these people. J.H.L.

读后感

《广岛》：那颗我们都知道但又不知道的原子弹 文/盒饭君 1945年8月6日，美国在广岛投掷了名为“小男孩”的新式炸弹——原子弹。 这句话我们一直当做常识来认知。仔细想想，频繁的民族争端屡屡被提及，二战（日本侵华战争）被多次搬上银幕，但我们对“原子弹”的认识好像仅仅停...  

毁灭来得太快，甚至没空歇斯底里。 纪实新闻的冷酷笔触勾勒出不甚真实的场景，人类遭逢灭顶之灾时随波逐流的形态宛若火苗里的蚂蚁，无能为力又沉默寡言，数十年后，读者只能从上帝视角隔岸观火。 战争的钝痛绵延数十年，并非每个人的生命从此撕裂，但确实也因为灾难而走上不同...  

《广岛》是约翰·赫西在1945年获得普利策奖后，受邀前往广岛采访幸存者，以还原核弹爆炸前后广岛人民的状态。作为日本的敌对方以及原子弹的投掷方，美国人会去怎样复现这段历史呢？ 约翰·赫西没有幸灾乐祸，也没有作为胜利者的优越感，而是以六个“被爆者”为切入点，冷静客观...  

买这本书是为了凑亚马逊的单。物价飞涨，29元包邮的时代一去不复返。下单后，我就一直在思考这些问题： 1、广岛——原子弹，这是我对广岛唯一的概念。那么买这本书，我想看到什么？到底是对广岛感兴趣，还是因为它是第一个被原子弹爆破的地方而感兴趣。我想更多是后者。 ...
