John Hersey
Do not work primarily for money; do your duty to patients first and let the money follow; our life is short, we don't live twice; the whirlwind will pick up the leaves and spin them, but then it will drop them and they will form a pile.
There, in the tin factory, in the first moment of the atomic age, a human being was crushed by books.
Green pine trees, cranes and turtles ... You must tell a story of your hard times And laugh twice.
On August 6, 1945, Hiroshima was destroyed by the first atom bomb ever dropped on a city. This book, John Hersey's journalistic masterpiece, tells what happened on that day. Told through the memories of survivors, this timeless, powerful and compassionate document has become a classic 'that stirs the conscience of humanity' (The New York Times).
