KUJDES! PAMJE SHQETËSUESE!  (+18)

Trupi i 86-vjeçarit Sumitery Taniguchi është si një rrjetë me shenja, e cila e ka karakterizuar lëkurën e tij gjatë këtyre 70 vjetëve.

I moshuari është njëri prej dhjetëra mijëra viktimave të bombës atomike  që shkatërroi qytetin japonez të Nagasakit më 9 gusht 1945.

Ai nuk është ende në gjendje ta ngrejë plotësisht krahun e tij të majtë, ndrësa gruaja e tij i vendos çdo mëngjes krem në lëkurë  për të pakësuar acarimin.

Tre prej brinjëve të tij u thyën përgjysëm dhe fluturuan jashtë gjatë sulmit dhe kanë lënë shenja të pazakonta çarjesh dhe gropash të mëdha në trup.

He could hear the nurses passing each other in the hallway, asking each other if the boy in the bed was still breathingOnslaught: The other Japanese city of Hiroshima had been struck by a similar, but more devastating, blast just three days beforeFinal insult: Just hours after the brutal attack, American aeroplanes dropped leaflets over the country, warning that unless Japan ended the war, atomic weapons would be used 'again and again'The mushroom cloud over Nagasaki in the wake of the blast
