Review of 'Hiroshima' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Interesting, but ultimately focuses too much on inconsequential character stories rather than the bigger picture of the history behind Hiroshima and the aftermath in the following decades. That said, it’s sold as a book of character stories, so maybe it’s just not the right book for me. If you’re looking for such a book, it’s well written as one.
