Nagasaki
Atlas / Nagasaki
The two-mat hut of a Catholic doctor who wrote of peace from the ruins of Urakami.
Dr. Takashi Nagai, a radiologist and convert, was injured in the 1945 bombing that killed his wife. Already ill with leukaemia, he lived in this tiny hut, which he named Nyokodō ("love your neighbour as yourself"), and wrote books including The Bells of Nagasaki until his death in 1951.
