Radioactive rain follows approximately 30 mins after the bomb. The violent bomb blast creates an updraft current immediately after impact, winding up dust, carbon and soot into the sky. Several cases of radioactive rain were observed in the Chernobyl disaster as well as in nuclear testing sites around the world. As a matter of fact, these are not the only instances of black rain observed in history. What is “black rain”?īlack rain is nuclear fallout or radioactive blackened rain that fell after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki Prefecture. ![]() ![]() Although most of the deaths and injuries were due to the burns from heat rays and the explosive blast, another factor has continuously afflicted survivors who witnessed the lightning-like bomb on the day: black rain.

As the days begin to drift away like so many molted feathers, some hazy shapes of proto-truths emerge. “You may wonder: How could such a thing come to pass between woman and owl? I, too, am astounded, because my owl-lover was a woman.” Tiny’s unnamed husband is at first more overjoyed by the pregnancy than she is, and as the owl-baby begins to take over Tiny’s thoughts and emotions, her musical talent begins to desert her.Īfter the birth, Tiny’s husband rejects the notion of an owl-baby, suggesting that the child he calls “Charlotte” is perhaps developmentally disabled while overlooking the fact that she eats mice and other snacks not typically found in the grocery store’s baby food department. Which is to say, if you don’t mind a little unexpected violence set in a surreal landscape, it will be right up your alley.Ĭhouette’s mom, Tiny, is a cellist who has a dream of a sexual encounter with an owl and, two weeks later, learns she is pregnant.
