A city is hit by an epidemic of "white blindness" which spares no
one. Authorities confine the blind to an empty mental hospital, but
there the criminal element holds everyone captive, stealing food
rations and raping women. There is one eyewitness to this nightmare
who guides seven strangers-among them a boy with no mother, a girl
with dark glasses, a dog of tears-through the barren streets, and
the procession becomes as uncanny as the surroundings are
harrowing. A magnificent parable of loss and disorientation and a
vivid evocation of the horrors of the twentieth century, Blindness
has swept the reading public with its powerful portrayal of man's
worst appetites and weaknesses-and man's ultimately exhilarating
spirit. The stunningly powerful novel of man's will to survive
against all odds, by the winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize for
Literature.
