When Hiroshima was obliterated in 1946, John Hersey did what no one else dared - he humanized nuclear devastation through six survivors' stories. Originally filling an entire New Yorker issue that sold out within hours, this book forever changed how we confront the unthinkable.

At 8:15 a.m. on August 6, 1945, a widow watched her neighbor dismantle his house. A doctor lounged on his porch in his underwear, reading the morning paper. A young woman turned to chat with a colleague at work. A priest rested on his cot after morning Mass. A surgeon walked a hospital corridor. A minister helped a friend move furniture. Then came the flash-whiter than any white they'd ever seen-and everything changed. In that instant, 100,000 people died. These six lived. Their stories, captured by journalist John Hersey just months after the bombing, became the most powerful testament to nuclear warfare ever written. Published in its entirety in a single issue of The New Yorker in 1946-the only time the magazine devoted an entire issue to one story-"Hiroshima" transformed how the world understood atomic weapons, shifting the narrative from military triumph to human tragedy.
