Reading Log

Blindness is a very slow moving story, but what's going on his so interesting. I love the way the author writes for some reason, his choice of words seem to have deeper meaning and they linger in my head. I would love to have that skill.
So far in the book the character are still held in the asylum, but their number has multiplied because the blindness has spread through out the city. Since their number have grown the old internees have developed skills to get by living there. They are attempting to work together realizing its all up to them on how they survive, besides a hand full who don't realized it yet. And now the internees who still possess their sight, but are believed to be exposed to the blindness are one by one going blind. Which is causing hysteria in their ward. As the go bind the make their way to the other ward with the blind. One character i believe the first to go blind for that ward was a man. When he could no longer see he, he did not cry out for help or panic. In the book he is referred to as the man with the eye patch and i like him because he just accepted his fate.
