Chorus of chicadas | Tatsuya Hirabayashi | Sokyusha 2025 [SIGNED] Yoshiyuki Okuyama "The last time I was"Are the cicadas absorbing Hiroshima into their song? Each time I hear their chirps, I feel a desire for remembrance and peace." From the afterword "This book evokes the souls of those whose lives were unjustly taken in the hot summer, and the pain of the land. A gaze that traverses reality and the spirit speaks of memories that must never be forgotten." From publisher's website
