Hiroshima (ISBN 0-679-72103-7) is the title of a magazine article written by Pulitzer winner John Hersey that appeared in The New Yorker in August 1946, one year after the United States dropped an atomic bomb on the city of Hiroshima, Japan, at 8:15 a.m., August 6, 1945. The article was soon made into a book.Modern editions of the book contain a final, fifth chapter, The Aftermath, written forty years after the original article. In it, Hersey returned to Japan to discover what happened to the six people he originally interviewed in the ensuing years. Two of them, Masakazu Fujii and Wilhelm Kleinsorge, had already died, but he described how they lived in the shadow of the bombing, with the former trying to erase any memory of what had happened, and the latter suffering a series of ailments stemming from his exposure to radiation. Influenced by Father Kleinsorge, Toshiko Sasaki had become a nun, after caring for her three younger siblings. Dr. Terufumi Sasaki had prospered with his own private clinic, and several experiences, such as a bad operation for lung cancer and his wife''s death, had developed his outlook on life and death.
