Second-generation A-bomb survivors in Hiroshima, Japan, use art to make sense of the tragedy that affected their families and neighbors. Hitomi Koyama tanka poems throughout. Quotes We Japanese people, whether we like it or not, became aggressors in that miserable war. We also became victims. Both our crimes and our wounds are vast and profound.
