This book explores the philosophies and actions of a group called Hongan no kai, comprised of mercury poisoning sufferers and their supporters in Minimata, Japan. While depicting their plights, Yuki Miyamoto unpacks the ways they wrestle with tragedy in their community as well as their vision of “a world otherwise†(janaka shaba).
