Barefoot gen Vol. 7: Bones Into Dust: Bones Into Dust v. 7: (in English)
Keiji Nakazawa
Synopsis "Barefoot gen Vol. 7: Bones Into Dust: Bones Into Dust v. 7: (in English)"
Barefoot Gen Volume Seven ― Bones into Dust ― Gen has grown old enough to think about the legacy of the victims of the atomic bombing. Picking up from Volume Six, the story opens with Gen searching for a printer willing to publish an eyewitness account of the bombing written by Papa, the journalist who serves as a father figure to Gen's war orphan friends. By hook and crook Gen and Ryuta manage to get the book printed and distributed, only to arouse the wrath of U.S. Army censors, who teach them a hard lesson about the politics of memory. Meanwhile, Gen's brother Koji returns home at last, only to find that their mother is on her deathbed.
(Hiroshima, 1939 - Tokio, 2012) tenía seis años cuando estalló la bomba atómica, y toda su familia falleció excepto su madre. En 1961 Nakazawa se mudó a Tokio donde trabajó como caricaturista y creó sus primeros mangas cortos. Tras la muerte de su madre en 1966, plasmó en sus historias la destrucción y el caos de Hiroshima. Kuroi Ame ni Utarete (Alcanzado por la lluvia negra), fue el primero de los cinco mangas que realizó en torno a la historia de los supervivientes de Hiroshima. La más conocida de todas estas obras es Pies descalzos. Una historia de Hiroshima, una larga serie de casi tres mil páginas protagonizada por un niño que sobrevive al terror atómico.
