书籍简介：
On 11 March 2011, a massive earthquake sent a 120-foot-high tsunami smashing into the coast of north-east Japan. By the time the sea retreated, more than 18,500 people had been crushed, burned to death, or drowned. It was Japan’s greatest single loss of life since the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. It set off a national crisis, and the meltdown of a nuclear power plant. And even after the immediate emergency had abated, the trauma of the disaster continued to express itself in bizarre and mysterious ways. Richard Lloyd Parry, an award-winning foreign correspondent, lived through the earthquake in Tokyo, and spent six years reporting from the disaster zone. There he encountered stories of ghosts and hauntings. He met a priest who performed exorcisms on people possessed by the spirits of the dead. And he found himself drawn back again and again to a village which had suffered the greatest loss of all, a community tormented by unbearable mysteries of its own. What really happened to the local children as they waited in the school playground in the moments before the tsunami? Why did their teachers not evacuate them to safety? And why was the unbearable truth being so stubbornly covered up? Ghosts of the Tsunami is a classic of literary non-fiction, a heart-breaking and intimate account of an epic tragedy, told through the personal accounts of those who lived through it. It tells the story of how a nation faced a catastrophe, and the bleak struggle to find consolation in the ruins.

书友短评：
@ clover Like the plot of a fiction, these remembrances culminated in belief in a mystery, in things missing, removed, and deliberately hidden-a conspiracy, that not only worsened the pain of grief but rendered it incomprehensible. @ JuJube 日文翻成英文名看上去太让人头大了，搞不清谁是谁，影响阅读，自然无法共情。下次我就记首字母好了。书本身的问题：线索不突出。絮絮叨叨，讲神神鬼鬼的，也不知是真是假。 @ JuneCybil 写得很好，看哭了好多次 @ 无人知晓 很是唏嘘，明明能躲过的灾难，却由于不负责的校方和过于听话的孩子，导致整个小学几乎全部丧生。留下的永远是最痛苦的。还好赢得了集体诉讼，还好受灾现场得到了保留，既是警戒，也是寄托 @ 卧搓豆 海啸对经历其中的人的深远的伤害
