On election day in the capital, it is raining so hard that no one has bothered to come out to vote. The politicians are growing jittery. What's going on? Should they reschedule the elections for another day? Around three o'clock, the rain finally stops. Promptly at four, voters rush to the polling stations, as if they had been ordered to appear.
But when the ballots are counted, more than 70 percent are blank. The citizens are rebellious. A state of emergency is declared. The president proposes that a wall be built around the city to contain the revolution. But are the authorities acting too precipitously? Or even blindly? The word evokes terrible memories of the plague of blindness that had hit the city four years before, and of the one woman who kept her sight. Could she be behind the blank ballots? Is she the organizer of a conspiracy against the state? A police superintendent is put on the case.
What begins as a satire on governments and the sometimes dubious efficacy of the democratic system turns into something far more sinister. A singular novel from the author of Blindness.

作为《失明症漫记》的姊妹篇,在没有读《复明症漫记》之前,我太过于天真的认为两者会有故事上的延续性。由此导致的困惑也一直困扰了前半程的阅读。事实上,两者真的也只有一些情节上的少许交叉,如果想把这作为单独的两本,也并不是不可做到。 《复明症漫记》明显有着强烈的政...
評分 評分 評分 評分有个读过《失明症漫记》的朋友曾问我《复明症漫记》写的是个什么故事。我当时没能给出完整答案,只说写的是一次选举,首都选民投出的百分之七十以上的选票都是空白票……后面这六个无辜又委屈的小黑点代表的是将近一半的小说篇幅。而当我读完最后一页,把书缓缓合上了以后...
