The Lucky Strike by Kim Robinson

The Lucky Strike by Kim Robinson

The classic and controversial story which Robinson has personally chosen for PM Press's new Outspoken Authors series begins on a lonely Pacific island, where a crew of untested men are about to take off in an untried aircraft with a deadly payload that will change the world forever. Until, that is, something goes wonderfully wrong. As a special addition, Robinson has also included an essay, A Sensitive Dependence on Initial Conditions, which dramatically deconstructs history to explore what might have been if things had gone differently over Hiroshima on that fateful day in 1945.
