(from amazon.jp): **"If nuclear power plants cannot run without people who work under radiation exposure, shouldn't they be treated more favorably and given more respect, even if they are not the 'Fukushima Fifty'?"** -Susumu Katsumata Susumu Katsumata, who won the Grand Prize of the Japan Cartoonists Association Award in 2006 for his depiction of the local life and people of his hometown in Tohoku, opens this volume with two unique short stories that capture the reality of nuclear energy gypsies based on meticulous reporting. 　 Katsumata studied nuclear physics at graduate school and became aware of the dangers of nuclear power plants early on, covering power plants in Fukushima Daiichi, Daini and other areas. He was in charge of illustrations for "Why Nuclear Power is Scary" and "Energy Plan for Nuclear Power Plant Phase-Out" (both published by Kobunken), and selected nine short stories from among the works of the mangaka, who continued to work consistently, though humbly. The exhibition traces the spirit of Susumu Katsumata, which emerges from the different elements of his works, which are both down-to-earth and personable.
