Episode 118 - Barefoot Gen - Volume 1. A conversation with Dave Robertson.

'I decided to use Manga to confront the bomb.'

This week Dave Robertson joins Tony to discuss Volume #1 of Keiji Nakazawa's series Barefoot Gen.

This episode includes a Content Warning regarding open and frank discussions about the use and tragic effects of using nuclear weapons on a civilian population. The hosts talk about this issue and it's themes, art and history.

Genuinely a book that should be read by everyone.
