Hiroshima is a book about the atomic bomb that was dropped on Japan on August 6, 1945. This book is told by the memories of six characters which survived : Ms.Sasaki a clerk, Dr. Fujji a physician , Mrs. Nakamura a widow, Father Kleinsorge a German priest, Dr.Sasaki a young surgeon, and Reverend Tanimoto. I picked Mrs. Nakumara because she is a widow and through this disaster, she had to take care her three children. (two girls and a boy).
The night before the bomb was dropped, an alarm went off and she took her kids to the "safe area." In the morning Mrs. Nakumara and her children returned home. The alarm went off again so she decided that she wasn't going back to the "safe area," so she put her kids in bed. She went in the kitchen and that's where she saw a flash. The bomb had hit. Her house collapsed. Mrs. Nakamura had to go dig herself out first and then get her kids out. She found out that they were unharmed so was she. Then she took clothes for her kids because she didn't want them to get sick if it got cold. She took her kids and they went to a park where they were told to go by their neighbor.
On the way to the park a lot of houses had collapsed and were burning. People were stuck and were screaming for help ,but everyone just walked by, because they were hurt or they didn't want to get burned. Here her son saw a man burn alive. As they were walking to the park they met Father Kleinsorge, which took them to his church.
Mrs. Nakamura stayed at the church alive but weak and sick. Her son which was only 10 years old began to have nightmares about the man he saw get burned. She found out that her mother, older sister and brother were dead. Since the bomb released radiation she and her daughter lost their hair.
So Father Kleinsorge had Dr. Sasaki come and look at them to make sure that they were ok. A few months later their hair grew back.
She faced tremendous poverty and difficult for a long time.
