Publisher Note

0000000 is a small pamphlet about the unstoppable process and the unavoidable consequences after the initiation of the nuclear bomb project by the United States, that lead to the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Through archive images, and a fact-based text, Ilkin Huseynov traces step by step the process of this Greek tragedy plot, whose fate was obviously going to be terrible, and - again - unavoidable...

A small book, hand-folded and saddle-stitched, housed in a paper sleeve, that is like a notebook or a log of events on the simplest material, to denounce the use of the nuclear weapon. The atomic bomb that still hangs over our heads today, as a sort of guarantee that a certain balance of powers will be kept, even if the risk today is lower than it has been in the past.


"Have you ever seen a person with cindered limbs?
Have you ever seen children gasping for life, lying on the ground with carbonized bones sticking out of their bodies instead of arms and legs?
The eyes of men filled with horror and shudder!!! Look at it, take your time and look at it.
You need to see what thirty times the sun's temperature does to the human body".
