The Country of the Blind
(eBook)
Description
Desiderius Erasmus had written 'In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.' This is a constant theme of The Country of the Blind. Using his outstanding imagination and prescient worldviews, H. G. Wells makes an interesting experiment, in which the minority becomes the majority. In his attempt to conquer a mountain crest, main character Nuñez discovers a society of only blind people. He thinks he can conquer them just like a mountain crest using his sight, but will he be understood by those deprived of sight?
