Blindness, Wandering and Daydreaming
Literature失明、漫游与白日梦
Ji Yongsheng
This is a true story that touched 8 million readers. A grocery store owner in his early 30s suffered from an incurable form of fundus macular degeneration. Before he completely lost his sight, he decided to go into self-exile: camping in the primeval forest where wild beasts were infested, riding the 318 Sichuan-Tibet Line where accidents were frequent, and building a cabin in the mountains to make wine... He seemed to have given up on his life in order to fight against the absurdity and nothingness of fate. But it was during his wandering that he gradually discovered a new possibility of survival.
