Review # 1 was written on 2012-05-13 00:00:00 Helen Robinson A beautiful, harrowing, and important book. There are pictures I wish I had not seen, and sentences I wish I had not read. But it was infinitely worse for the innocent victims to actually experience the things Mr. O'Donnell hints at here. In the introduction, Mark Selden notes that Mr. O'Donnell censors himself by picking out photographs he could bear to show. This is true. The pictures, and the selection, may tell us as much about Mr. O'Donnell - a humane and devout young man who found himself shattered, and forever changed, by what he witnessed - as it does about the subjects. To me, that is precisely why this book is so truthful, and so valuable. Any witness to such events must have a partial view, especially months after the fact. "Japan 1945" is, at the very least, a good introduction to the horrors of the atomic bombings. It is also a work of art. I believe all adult Americans should read and think about this book. Highly recommended.
