Hiroshima no Pika

This book is a minimally fictionalized account of what happened to a woman, her husband and their daughter during the bombing of Hiroshima, and for a short time afterwards.

The book consists of writing plus drawings. Whether a person likes the drawings or not is a matter of personal opinion, of course, but they do tend to dramatize rather strongly the horrors of what happened.

An interesting book.
