Cecità

The story explores a terrifying epidemic of “white blindness” that suddenly strikes an unnamed city, causing society to collapse into chaos and brutality. As the government interns the first victims in a filthy, overcrowded asylum, the narrative follows a small group of survivors led by the “doctor’s wife,” the only person who can still see. Through her eyes, we witness the breakdown of human morality and the struggle for survival in a world where lack of vision leads to the loss of civilization. It is a profound and disturbing allegory about human nature, selfishness, and the fragility of social structures.
