Setsuko Thurlow’s Memoirs

Many of you may remember these sentences, “EACH PERSON HAD A NAME. EACH PERSON WAS LOVED BY SOMEONE.” in Setsuko Thurlow’s Nobel Prize Acceptance Speech when the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) received the Nobel Peace Prize on December 10, 2017. We have registered four editions of memoirs, “For Those Who Pray for Peace”, published by Hiroshima Jogakuin Alumni Association. Japanese and English versions, published in 2005 and 2015, contain Setsuko Thurlow’s memoir. The Japanese versions, published in 2005 and 2015, contain a name list of 350 staff and students of Hiroshima Jogakuin who lost their lives at the bombing.
