by Graeme Edwards
Mr. Edwards, an Australian journalist, has been blind since infancy. In this programme he describes in detail-illustrating where possible with recordings-his own impressions of living without sight; his solutions to the problems it raises; the fears, consolations, and resentments that are linked with blindness. It is a personal picture of a widespread disability.
