One Morning Like a Bird by Andrew Miller

The Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, one of two dreadful events that hang over One Morning Like a Bird, was one of the worst in human history. Devastating Tokyo and Yokohama, it killed about 140,000 people.

Giant rotating columns of fire rose into the air, one incinerating a crowd of 38,000 people in just 15 minutes. To this day, every 1 September Japanese schoolchildren commemorate the moment that the quake struck.
