Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'The greatest work of manga ever. The awkward earnestness of Nakazawa artwork, the terrifying details and the honest, egoless portrayals of the agony endured by the characters make this also one of the most important stories ever told. --The Times

The art is sharply drawn and expressive, and the narrative has such a natural rhythm, it's easy to get pulled into the family's life, making the cataclysm readers know awaits them all the more real, intimate and difficult to take. --Publishers Weekly

Polemical, strident and unrelenting, A Cartoon Story of Hiroshima is also a great piece of craft: graphic narrative at its most effective and powerful. Gen is a flawed but likable hero, big-hearted and trustworthy, a source of cathartic laughter of the best slapstick kind, and a beacon of tragedy, hope and (im)patient understanding. --Comics Review

Reseña del editor:

In this graphic depiction of nuclear devastation, three survivors of the bombing of Hiroshima--Gen, his mother, and his baby sister--face rejection, hunger, and humiliation in their search for a place to live.
