À propos de cet ebook

“In the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king” Chen Fangyuan repeats to himself after he finds himself trapped in a valley with a people whose sight has been eliminated generations ago by a disease and no longer have a concept of vision. He quickly finds the people have developed their other senses to compensate for a lack of sight. His insistence that he can see causes the entire community to believe he is crazy. With no way out, Chen Fangyuan begins to accept his fate until one day the village doctors believe they now understand the cause of his insanity… those useless round objects in his eye sockets.
