Congratulations to Ryo Morimoto on the publication of his new book, Nuclear Ghost: Atomic Livelihoods in Fukushima’s Gray Zone.
This is one of the first in-depth ethnographic accounts of coastal Fukushima written in English, Nuclear Ghost tells the stories of a diverse group of residents who aspire to live and die well in their now irradiated homes. Their determination to recover their land, cultures, and histories for future generations provides a compelling case study for reimagining relationality and accountability in the ever-atomizing world.
