Hiroshima
by John Hersey
Review this book!
The most famous work of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist and reporter. An account of the bombing of Hiroshima in 1945, told from the perspective of six survivors, it is written in a stark, objective voice that manages to be precise and all the more vivid for its understatement of events. A profoundly influential work that has long since been established as one of the classic accounts of the Second World War.

Media Reviews
"The quietest, and the best, of all the stories that have been written about the most spectacular explosion in the time of man. 'Hiroshima' penetrated the tissue of complacency we had built up. It penetrated it all the more inexorably because it told its story not it terms of graphs and charts but in terms of ordinary human beings....Their stories had been taken down directly by Mr. Hersey, who brought to his interrogations and investigations the gifts he had already conspicuously shown as the Pulitzer-Prize-winning author of 'A Bell for Adano' and as an outstanding war correspondent."
