'It was not the darkness that frightened him, but the thought of it never lifting.'
Henry Green's first novel, Blindness is a profoundly introspective coming-of-age tale that explores identity, isolation and beginning anew.
John Haye, a sensitive and artistic teenager attending boarding school, is blinded in an accident which changes his life forever. Forced to leave school and return home, John must confront an entirely new reality – one of restricted freedom, vulnerability and inner turmoil. As John attempts to adapt to his blindness, we are provided with a profound insight into his emotional world, including his alienation from others and efforts to form a new sense of self. Deeply affecting and experimental in style, Blindness reveals Green's early interest in class and perception, and remains one of his most compelling works to this day. This audiobook is beautifully narrated by Glen McCready.
Henry Green, the penname of Henry Vincent Yorke (1905–1973) was an English writer, famed for his novels Party Going, Living and Loving. He was often grouped with the 'Bright Young Things' of the 1920s and 1930s in London's literary scene. Today, Green's novels are considered significant works of modernist literature.
