Review title: I comment on the narrative style and imagery of the novel.
Product review: "Blindness" is a fascinating novel. The premis is interesting and the plot plays out as it should, but what I find most interesting is the way in which Saramago leads the reader through the novel as if he/she were blind. The lack of character names and the non-punctuated dialogue make the narrative a bit difficult to follow, one has to grope around as if blind to keep up. And the inagery is wonderfully disgusting-smells and textures, sound. The imagery is appropriate given that the sensory experience described is from the perspective of a blind person; not much of it is visual. The novel paints a negative picture of human nature in general, but given the times this is appropriate. Definately a must read.
