The Country of the Blind: A Memoir at the End of Sight by Andrew Leland As Andrew Leland prepares to lose his sight, he embarks on a journey to explore the world of blindness, its language, politics, and customs. With a mix of apprehension and curiosity, he navigates the changes in his relationships and sense of self as he moves from his mainstream life to one with a disability. This memoir is a sweeping exploration of the state of being that awaits him, full of warmth and humor. It is an exhilarating tour of a new way of being, as Leland seeks to grow from his experience and find the enlightening aspects of blindness.
