Exposing the rich and surprising possibilities of a life that has undergone a frightening transformation, Blindfold relates feelings of loss, displacement, and disorientation experienced not only by the disabled but by everyone who finds themselves separated from the norm. Silver Threads He recalls the absence of sound, the impossible silence the disappearance of light. He is only aware of the movement of his mother's hand inside her purse, looking for her handkerchief. He recalls her warning not to play with unknown objects the type that explode on impact. Later, he lies in the dark remembering how she pointed out the silver threads of the morning light just the day before and he sparkles with guilt.Hugh MacLennan poetry series.BlindnessPoetryBlindnessC811/.54Asfour John1561462MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQThumbnail cover image:http://celarc.ca/covers/444/444012.jpgBOOK9910779247603321Blindfold3828204UNINA01702nas 2200385 n 450 99000890027040332120240229084541.00758-6353000890027FED01000890027(Aleph)000890027FED01000890027CNRP 0007094020161109b19501953km-y0itaa50------bafreFRauu--------Annuaire de l'Ecole des Legislations Religieuses1950-1953ParisLetouzey et AneAnnualeAnnuaire de l'Ecole des Legislations Religieuses2348Université de ParisFaculté de Droit CanoniqueInstitut CatholiqueBibliotheque Ecole des Legislations ReligieusesITACNP20090723http://acnp.cib.unibo.it/cgi-ser/start/it/cnr/dc-p1.tcl?catno=45457&person=false&language=ITALIANO&libr=&libr_th=unina1Biblioteche che possiedono il periodicoSE990008900270403321Biblioteca Centrale della Facoltà di Giurisprudenza dell'Università di Napoli Federico II1950-1953.Univ. 115FGBCFGBCAnnuaire de l'Ecole des Legislations Religieuses800922UNINA866-01NA073 Biblioteca Centrale della Facoltà di Giurisprudenza dell'Università di Napoli Federico IIUniv. 115Corso Umberto I, 80138 Napoli (NA)0812537531/330812537532itacnp.cib.unibo.itACNP Italian Union Catalogue of Serialshttp://acnp.cib.unibo.it/cgi-ser/start/it/cnr/df-p.tcl?catno=45457&language=ITALIANO&libr=&person=&B=1&libr_th=unina&proposto=NO
