    Blindness by José Saramago

    But don’t read it at face value it’s really an allegory.

      Sounds really interesting. While reading about the story on Wikipedia, I saw that there is a second part called Seeing. Definetly want to see what everything means.

        The second one isn’t as good though.

        The first one is amazing although a bit hard to read, both due to its writing style and content.
