Barefoot Gen Volume 1: Hardcover Edition: A Cartoon Story of Hiroshima

Beautiful new hardcover edition of Barefoot Gen Volume One! Striking new design with special sturdy binding for institutional use.

August 6, 2015 marked the 70th anniversary of the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Today, the danger posed by nuclear weapons is as great as ever, yet few people survive who witnessed their horror. To mark the event, and honor Keiji Nakazawa's incredible work, Last Gasp created a special set of Barefoot Gen, volumes 1-4 for institutional use. Nakazawa's manga illustrates the true impact of nuclear weapons when used against a civilian population. It is vital reading for people of all ages, and especially for today's youth. By keeping this tragedy in our collective consciousness, we can strive to never repeat it and guide humanity towards a course of peace.

Barefoot Gen Volume One â€•"A Cartoon Story of Hiroshima" â€•details the events leading up to and immediately following the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.
