This week marks the anniversary of the atomic bombing of Nagasaki fifty seven years ago.
It was a time which Fumiko Miura remembers every day of her life. She is now the Emeritus Professor of English Literature at Keio University in Tokyo and a distinguished poet. In 1945 she was sixteen years old, living in Nagasaki when the bomb was dropped. Fumiko has had nine operations for cancer which may be due to the radiation. Now 73 she has only just begun to talk and write about her experiences. Professor Miura joins Martha to talk about her memories of that day.
