For me, this book was a read that I want to define as "difficult", but not because of the understanding of the text or because it deals with difficult topics.
Because I have never felt such a sense of helplessness.
I am a very creative person and one way or another I manage to find a solution, which even if miserable, takes you an inch further. Not for these pages.
It's a book that I had to sip because I could only sustain small doses, and it has a type of writing that lends itself very well to quick reading. It left me with a perspective, difficult to say whether it is a new or different perspective because I always had the feeling of already knowing it and I was only reviewing it with well-defined words, and above all it left me with the certainty of never wanting to know the answer to the question "What if one day I found myself blind?". As the writer says in the first pages, it's a question we all ask ourselves at least once in our lives, as far as I'm concerned even once a month.
In these pages you will find fear and determination, confusion and disgust, and helplessness, a lot. I am happy to have had the opportunity to experience all these sensations and grateful that to date I have only experienced them through the book.
Enjoy the reading!
