This classic manga memoir about the bombing of Hiroshima should be read far and wide.

"This vivid and harrowing story will... burn a radioactive crater in your memory that will never let you forget it. Gen is one of those few comix that actually pulls off the essential magic trick... those little marks on paper come to fully realized life."
— Art Spiegelman, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of MAUS

August 6, 2015 marks 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.

Keiji 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.

With your support we hope to share the message of Gen with tomorrow's leaders.
