Blindfulness
A travel guide from the land of the sighted to the country of the blind.

Blindfulness is a deeply human account of losing sight and learning to live again. With clarity and restraint, Earl Zapf brings together grief, mindfulness, and reflection to map the unfamiliar terrain of blindness. What begins as loss becomes something more nuanced: a gradual loosening of reliance on vision, and the discovery of another way of meeting experience, one grounded in presence rather than control. Meditation appears here not as a fix, but as a steady companion. This perceptive and quietly powerful book speaks to anyone navigating change, at a time when blindness is expected to rise dramatically worldwide.
