A man goes blind, inexplicably, while in his car in the middle of traffic. The blindness spreads like wildfire. A collective blindness.
A compelling novel. Saramago sees further. Nameless characters. A world filled with the contradictions of the human species. It's not set in any specific time. It's a time that could be yesterday, today, or tomorrow. Ideas always emerge in Saramago's writing. Allegory. The power of words to open our eyes, in the face of the risk of a widespread terminal situation. The art of writing at the service of civic concern.
