I don't Know if you 've got this book translated in to english. I hope you do. After all the north american movies about Pearl Harbour is a real treat to read what the japanese think about Iroshima and Nagasaki. Akiyuki Nosaka is a grat wirter, whithin just two little "novellas" he tells us everything.

In "La tumba de las luciérnagas" two little kids walk and walk through a completed destroy country until they die of hunger. Romantic and Lyric

In "Las algas americanas" we are 35 years after the war. A japanese works in an american company. His wife has make friends with some northamericans and these decide to visit. He hates them. He admires them.

Wonderfully written.
