I recently finished reading José Saramago’s novel, Blindness. It is the second of his books that I have read, and I felt so moved by it I spent quite a deal of time reflecting on it and writing my own review of the novel as post for here. I later decided that would stray just a little too far from the blog’s intent, but I still wanted to focus on this novel for a post in Arabic.
