O Recomeço by Keiji Nakazawa
A harrowing semi-autobiographical tale follows a young boy who survives the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and, after losing family and home, must struggle through starvation, disease, social cruelty and bureaucratic indifference to rebuild a life amid ruins; through stark, often graphic scenes the narrative exposes the human cost of war and nuclear devastation while tracing the boy’s fierce resilience, moral growth and determination to protect the memory of those he has lost.
