Обратный отсчет: 116 дней до атомной бомбардировки Хиросимы

The book covers a lot of ground in a short time, and I was impressed by how vivid and suspenseful it felt. What do you think led to the decision to focus on this particular 116-day period?

The decisions about dropping the bomb were so morally complex — I wondered how much space the author gave to different perspectives. Was that your impression too?

The narrow time frame made the story feel urgent and intense, but I’m curious whether this was a conscious choice to highlight a pivotal moment or if it evolved during research.
