Cander Mitija - Blind Man - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: The main character and narrator of Blind Man is a successful book editor and critic with severely impaired vison although he has never had much to do with the visually impaired community and doesn t really feel like he is one of them. But when he is offered a chance to enter the world of politics he is blinded by the lure of power and this easy - going level - headed husband and soon - to - be father gradually turns into a self - absorbed careerist. Author Mitja ander without pontificating and with a measured dose of humour paints a critical unsparing portrait of a small European country and through it a convincing satire on the psychological state of contemporary European society. What or who do we still believe in today and who should we trust? Politicians apparatchiks the media? Speeches laden with buzzwords and grandiose promises break down the flimsy fa ade as the protagonist's own insecurity suggests that things are not always what they seem. In the end social blindness is worse than any physical impairment and worst of all is to be blinded by your own ego.
