【内容紹介】
中学1年、広島で被爆。8月6日は体調がすぐれず建物疎開作業を休み、千田町の学校に登校して被爆。爆心地から600mの中島新町で建物疎開作業に従事していた同級生は全員が亡くなり、自らも重症を負い、収容所を転々としながら伯母宅に帰りついた。
著者は出張先のポーランドで観た「アウシュビッツの絵」に言語を超える力を感じて絵筆を持った。けれども被爆当時の生き地獄(色、音、声、匂い)を思いだし、亡き級友の顔が浮かんでくる。描きながらゾクゾクと寒気がして暫く筆を置き、また気を取り直して描く、それを繰り返した。
被爆から77年。生かされた自分と、失われた平和。著者は8月6日をどう生き延びたのか。あの日を中学生の視点のままに描く。素朴で優しさに包まれた絵は、読者の心に「大切なもの」を問いかける。
