NEW DELHI: The Japan Foundation Delhi is all set to launch a Manga comic book, Yunagi no machi Sakura no Kuni, on Tuesday. The comics are translated into Hindi by Tomoko Kikuchi.

The book is a unification of two stories - Yunagi no machi (Nirav sandhya ka shahar) and other being Sakura no Kuni (Sakura ka desh). The story is about a family of survivors of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima where the author based the characters on people who were in Hiroshima at the time.

The book launch will be followed by an exhibition of comic installations of the book starting Aug 7. The exhibition that's titled Town of Evening Calm, Country of Cherry Blossoms will go on till Aug 31.

Also in the pipeline under India-Japan Dialogue Lecture Series 2013-14 is a talk on the works of Umeko Tsuda on Aug 23. "Tsuda was one of the first Japanese women to establish a college for women. She stood her ground and challenged the 'ideal' which the then Japanese state both openly and covertly imposed", says Shailey Goyal, assistant program officer, Japan Foundation.

The talk, titled The Establishment of Modern Women's Education in Japan: The Life and Work of Umeko Tsuda, will have speakers like Dr Asmita S Hulyalkar, PhD Cornell University, USA (a young researcher of Japan's women's education) and will be chaired by Dr Rashmi Bhatnagar visiting scholar, University of Pittsburgh, USA.

Apart from this, the foundation has lined up film screenings throughout the month of August starting from Barefoot Gen on Aug 12 and 17 and The Face of Jizo on Aug 24 and 30.
