Intriguing, Hiroshima is a harrowing topic, the Last Crane is crafted with beautiful depth, raw emotion and insightful wisdom. The first look has already touched my soul. I need to know what the heavy secret is that has consumed Grandfather Ichiro for all these years, that’s so important that ‘somebody younger needs to know.’ I am already Mizuki, hanging on Grandfather’s every word.

‘Listen,’ he says. ‘Then judge me.
Hate me or love me, forgive me or condemn me. But first . . . listen.’

The title and cover convey the desperate urgency and symbolic importance of inheriting not only the story, but the understanding and responsibility to pass it on. You need to read this. Now!
