具体描述
Winner of the 1998 Nobel Prize for Literature. A city is hit by an epidemic of 'white blindness.' The blindness spreads, sparing no one. Authorities confine the blind to a vacant mental hospital secured by armed guards. Inside, the criminal element among the blind hold the rest captive: food rations are stolen, women are raped. There is one eyewitness to this nightmare who guides seven strangers through the barren streets. The developments within this oddly anonymous group -- the first blind man, the old man with the black eye patch, the girl with dark glasses, the boy with no mother, and the dog of tears -- are as uncanny as the surrounding chaos is harrowing. PA parable of loss and disorientation, of man's worst appetites and hopeless weaknesses, Blindness is one of the most challenging, thought-provoking, and ultimately exhilarating novels published in any language in recent years.
作者简介
José de Sousa Saramago (pronounced [ʒuˈzɛ sɐɾɐˈmagu]) was a Nobel-laureate Portuguese novelist, playwright, and journalist. He was a member of the Portuguese Communist Party.
His works, some of which can be seen as allegories, commonly present subversive perspectives on historic events, emphasizing the human factor rather than the officially sanctioned story. Saramago was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1998. He founded the National Front for the Defense of Culture (Lisbon, 1992) with among others Freitas-Magalhaes. He lived on Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, Spain, where he died in June 2010.
A foundation with his name was established in 2007; its main aims are cultural promotion, particularly of Portuguese literature and authors. The José Saramago Foundation is currently based in Casa dos Bicos, a Portuguese landmark building in Lisbon. Saramago's house in Lanzarote is also open to the public.
José Saramago, together with his wife Pilar, were the subject of the award-winning documentary José e Pilar, providing us with a glimpse into their love story and life, as he was writing his A Viagem do Elefante.

读后感
这本书并没有我想象的那么好，当然更没有前言中说得那么好。我想主流文学界能给这本书以极高的评价，其原因大概还是在于科幻文学的非主流性质。因为这样一个在科幻界并不显得出奇的故事竟然能得到“其丰富的想象力令人拍案叫绝”的评价，这恰恰说明主流文学界太不了解科幻文学...
评分一 “肉眼上的失明，代之以灵性的视域，足以补偿”。 受荷马、弥尔顿和博尔赫斯的干扰，人们往往把失明看作是另一种光明的开启，与一种超自然的力量拉上关系。富有讽刺意味的是，《失明症漫记》中，当整个城市都失明了，社会没有开启我们期盼的“另一种光明”。社会秩序迅速垮...
评分乌苏拉对抗着家族男人的癫狂，撑起了一个孤独家族百年历程…… 医生的妻子对抗着世界的紊乱，让人性经受住了失明症的逼迫…… 马尔克斯和萨拉马戈都不约而同的把女性放在如此重要的地位，却是为何？ 如果这世界上有一种传染病，将使接触者失明，那么世界会变成什...
评分某次遇到困境，陷于惘然，不知为何老天要做这种安排。让我出现在这里，面对这一切，受这样的苦，而最后还要告诉我一切是meanless的。这个独特的判定让我几乎陷于无地自容的处境。 以前受过同样的苦，但幸运的是，我觉得一切都有意义－－当时的痛苦是今日的欢乐，今日的欢乐是日...
评分如果世界上所有的人全部丧失了视力，世界失去了所有的秩序，人们生活在无比肮脏污秽之中，甚至为了食物和水需要拼上性命，这将是个怎样的世界？恐怕我们脑海中对这个世界的第一反应就是“地狱”。而萨拉马戈的«失明症漫记»正向我们描绘了这样一幅世界末日般的恐怖场景。 ...

评分从一开始大快朵颐，到过半后小心翼翼，再到最后几章不忍结束，终于2019年最后一天读完了这本书。窗外阳光灿烂，往楼下看，the city was still there. 这是一场想象与勇气的历险，也是孤独异境的漫游，我的人生好像也因此多了好几年。

评分无意中在爱尔兰人的节日买了这本书，拿着纸质书看，是很奢侈的一件事情。因为不是什么紧俏书，立刻借来有声书听。非常棒。立刻就被吸引。里面的主人公没有名字，却鲜丽明亮。对人性的描写很真实，一针见血。
评分“There must be a government, said the first blind man, I'm not so sure, but there is, it will be a government of the blind trying to rule the blind, that is to say, nothingness trying to organize nothingness.” 全篇堆砌run-on句我一个语法junkie还很喜欢。
