520 1  "A bronze monument - the Tower of a Thousand Cranes - 
       stands in Hiroshima's International Peace Park, mute 
       testimony to Sadako Sasaki, a young victim of the atomic 
       bomb whose radiation-induced leukemia led to her death 
       after she had folded only six hundred cranes." "In Leonard
       Bird's haunting memoir, Sadako's monument becomes a 
       touchstone for his own experiences with cancer and the 
       bomb. Exposed to radiation during aboveground detonations 
       at the Nevada Test Site in the 1950s, Bird must find a way
       to make peace not only with his past but with a future 
       shadowed by nuclear proliferation. In committing his story
       to paper, Bird gains, with each reader, another paper 
       crane."--Jacket.
