### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A Poignant Comic
  

*by B***H on Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2010*

Just by glancing at its cover, Barefoot Gen appears to merely be a cheery Japanese comic book, or manga, as the medium is called in Japan.  But the actual contents belie the surface of this exceptionally sad memoir. A story of the hard times war brings that culminates in the nuclear annihilation of Hiroshima, Barefoot Gen was written by an actual survivor of the bombing: Keiji Nakazawa.  This true story of a little boy in wartime Japan presents a view of what life was like for Japanese civilians at the height of World War II. It shows in great detail (a picture is worth a thousand words, as the saying goes) the effect the war had on the Japanese: malnutrition, bombings of almost all cities, etcetera, while still keeping in mind that Japan was also guilty of war crimes.  But the end of Barefoot Gen is a nightmarish vision of the worst war crime of all: the dropping of a weapon of mass destruction on a heavily populated, civilian town.  The images of injured, haggard victims of the atom bomb moaning and weeping that are shown in this comic are terrible, but far more terrible still is the knowledge that this isn't fiction, it's a memoir. This really happened to women, babies, children and all other unsuspecting civilians. Although Barefoot Gen is not widely known, it is still arguably one of the best anti-war books on the subject, and highly recommended reading.

    hiroshima...
  

*by D***K on Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2013*

A moving story which touches the heart.  Debate about whether the U.S. had to drop the bomb continues today.  Having studied WWII, I think it had to be done.  An invasion of the homeland would have cost many more lives as the war would have degenerated into a guerrilla combat.  Yet, the sorrow caused is moving to anyone.  This book well conveys that.  Thank g-d it is not in color.
