Maggiori informazioni sul libro
From New York Times columnist Frank Bruni comes a poignant memoir about aging, affliction, and optimism following a significant loss of eyesight. In late 2017, Bruni awoke to blurred vision, initially suspecting a minor issue. However, a rare stroke had permanently damaged one of his optic nerves, leaving him functionally blind in that eye and threatening the sight in his other eye. As he faced this daunting reality, Bruni embarked on a medical and spiritual journey, reevaluating his priorities and seeking wisdom from friends and new acquaintances who had faced their own challenges. His narrative is a heartfelt exploration of the limits we all encounter, the perspectives we adopt, and the resilience we cultivate. While his world became blurred in one aspect, it sharpened in another, revealing the transient nature of life and the inevitability of loss. Confronting unexpected hardship, Bruni discovered a profound sense of gratitude, recognizing that while vision was lost, new insights and appreciation for life emerged. The memoir serves as an uplifting reminder of the strength found in vulnerability and the beauty that can arise from adversity.
