Produktbeschreibung

A sense of exile and belonging dominates the poems, following the journey of a blind man whose life in his new land has been hampered by prejudice and barriers to communication. Exposing the rich and surprising possibilities of a life that has undergone a frightening transformation, Blindfold relates feelings of loss, displacement, and disorientation experienced not only by the disabled but by everyone who finds themselves separated from the norm. Silver ThreadsHe recallsthe absence of sound, the impossible silencethe disappearance of light. He is only aware ofthe movement of hismother's hand insideher purse, lookingfor her handkerchief. He recalls herwarning not to playwith unknown objectsthe type that explode on impact. Later,he lies in the dark rememberinghow she pointed outthe silver threads of the morning lightjust the day beforeand he sparkles with guilt.
