John Hull writes of odd sounds and echoes, of people without faces, of a curious new relationship between waking and dreaming, of a changed perception of nature and human personality. He reveals a world in which every human experience - eating and lovemaking, playing with children and buying drinks in the bar - is transformed. 'The incisiveness of Hull's observation, the beauty of his language, make this book poetry; the depth of his reflection turns it into phenomenology or philosophy.'\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eOliver Sacks, neurologist and bestselling author (1933-2015)\u003c\/b\u003e 'He lets us see with no trace of self-pity or self-praise how blindness has become for him a genuine acquisition, an unforeseeably rich gift that has made of him what so few of us are: excellent watchers and hearers of the world . . . triumphant in the teeth of ruin.' \u003cb\u003eReynolds Price, American novelist (1933-2011)\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eNotes on Blindness\u003c\/i\u003e, a feature film and virtual reality experience by Peter Middleton \u0026amp; James Spinney based on John's original audio diaries.
