FLASH!

FLASH! On august 6, 1945 an atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. Thousands of people died instantly from the initial blast. Others died later because of flash burns and radiation sickness. Those who lived had to move away from their homes and toward the parade grounds and parks. Any doctors that were uninjured had to work nonstop all day and night mending wounds. Some people mysteriously die and others are unrecognizable because of the flash burns covering …

…memories. Besides the physical injuries people lost their homes and possessions. Their families had died and they had nothing in their once peaceful town. The only problem I found with the book was the way everything was put together. It made it very difficult to fallow some of what was going on during the book. The names were intertwined into the sections sometimes, and in others each person’s experience was given an individual section.
