Summary:

"This nonfiction book, available now from Chin Music Press, follows the lives of a hairdresser, a café owner, a cattle rancher, and a nuclear-energy worker from the moment the 2011 tsunami hit Japan's Tohoku region through the subsequent years of recovery, grief, and frustration. The narrative chronicles their attempts to recover what they had lost despite a government response replete with missed opportunities and predictable missteps."
