A retrospective on the lasting effects of the atrocities committed by Japanese soldiers in Nanjing, China during the winter of 1937-1938. The retelling is from the point of view of the Wang family. Though the Wang family lost a number of close relatives, they were among the lucky few thousand who survived the sacking of China’s capital living as refugees in an international safety zone near the American and German embassies.
