Showa 1953-1989: A History of Japan by Shigeru Mizuki
2.0
The last two books of the Showa series were amazing. I feel like I have a new understanding of how Japan got to where it is today. I feel like I can emphasize better with old people (I'm 20) who have lived through WW2. But seriously, this current generation is really so lucky to be where we are today.
I learned a lot from Mizuki's reflections towards the last half of this book. I could emphasize and see myself in him when he describes trying to make it and find happiness in the new Japan after the war. It scares me to think how I may come to have regrets in my life in 60yrs when I look back on my life as Mizuki does here. It really made me think. And that's how you know this is book is truly good. It has the ability to change me in the real world
