The 1st Chronicles Of Thomas Covenant #2: The Illearth War - Plot & Excerpts
He perceived this with an acuteness which made his heart ache. In the “real” world, he had not been simply blind, he had been eyeless from birth. He lacked even the organs of sight which could have given him a conception of what vision was.
