Book 79: Blindness by Jose Saramago


Bought this book (in translation) in Lisbon when we were there a few years back, and finally got around to reading it. I can see why it's considered a classic, though it's not particularly pleasant to read, but it's an interesting premise and a no doubt accurate depiction of how at least some of the human race would behave in this sort of situation. Some of them behave well, too. Funny that I picked it up shortly after reading Milkman, as it also has no named protagonists.
