Remains
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 April 2020
Hibakusha resting in a local hospital. Scorched metal. Twisted metal. Charred stones. Shattered stones. Bottle caps inextricably fused into a single mass. Human flesh exhibited in flasks. Piles of hair from women who lost it due to exposure to the radiation delivered by the bomb. Photographs of burned bodies. A film that reconstructs the events of August 6, 1945. Newsreels showing the complete destruction of the city and scars stamped on scalps and necks, on backs and shoulders, on arms and legs. Newsreels on infant survivors with all sorts of injuries and bodily deformities. Newsreels on daily life in the city after the war, its inhabitants trying to rebuild their lives as best they can.
