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.

一本在家里落了十一年灰的书
评分看的人难受 唉
评分快读完的时候读到一句,在爆炸发生一个月以后,“weeds already hid the ashes, and wild flowers were in bloom among the city's bones”
评分"The surviving hibakusha had been polled and 54.3 per cent of them said they thought that nuclear weapons would be used again."读开篇的时候觉得最让人绝望的是原子弹刚投下那几天,读完发现更绝望的是原子弹投下后几十年人性仍然没有变化。
评分没什么出人意料的地方,但可以想象当时发表的震撼。这种冷静得没有一点矫情的叙事方式很赞!
珍惜今天,珍惜现在,谁知道明天和意外,哪一个先来。 ——日·野坂昭《萤火虫之墓》 广岛,一个人类战争史中具有里程碑意义的城市,1945年8月6日,这座具有三百多年历史,对于日本具有重要战略意义的城市毁于一旦,一颗长三米、直径七十一厘米、重约三吨的“新型炸弹”——代...
评分行文的思路很简单也很集中 第一部分好像复现式蒙太奇,历史的那一个时刻的前一秒,每个人依然只一边漫不经心地担心着遥远的“B君”,一边忧愁着自己的事情。 “人类原子时代开始的那一刻,在这个罐头厂,一个人被一堆书撞到在地。” 紧接着第二部分,那种交错的混乱,接力的生...

评分六个人,分别是神父、牧师、医生、家庭主妇和工厂职员,他们的生活本无交集,但1945年8月6日后,他们都有了一个共同称谓:被爆者。最让人诧异的是,对美国人精心制造的这起显然具有人类灭绝性质的空前灾难,日本人从未提出过正式抗议,而被爆者甚至产生劫后余生的自豪感,大和...
评分在办公室看完这本小书,心情却有些沉重。谁叫你上班时间看了,看了这书还怎么愉快地上班啊。 战败后日本人对战争的看法是怎样的? 日本人对美国人投掷原子弹是怎么看待的? 日本普通民众在二战中扮演了怎样的角色,支持与反对的意见如何? 广岛、长崎的受难者该如何看待原...
