Hiroshima

In the mid-2000s, the Italian publisher XTRA brought Keiji Nakazawa’s landmark work to a new audience with Hiroshima, a 10-issue series collecting his stark, autobiographical account of the atomic bombing and its aftermath. Originally serialized in the 1970s, this unflinching narrative—defined by Nakazawa’s raw, expressive art and his lifelong dedication to bearing witness—remains a vital, humanistic document of survival and the enduring cost of war.
