Author: Brandon Shimoda 

Publisher: Litmus Press (2011)

"Shimoda's world is a hushed world—his book, a silent prayer, not to a god, but to life, the life of survivors—that one can whisper, can join the dead—that whisper turns into a ritualistic text, a celebration of witnessing, of the minute manifestations of reality.... Insinuating itself in the memory of Hiroshima and the bomb—a disaster surpassing disasters—his work is the saying of the dead who return, is a Requiem."

–Etel Adnan
