Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Children of the Night The operation was three weeks ago. No one thought of blindness and I was not prepared. I have wasted time since; already I cannot quite remember how the room looks. I confuse it, somehow, with other rooms in which I have lived, and the effort to hold things in my mind drives them out. He was right who said nothing was more fugacious than thought. That is just the word for me, since a fugitive implies a pursuer and my mind is constantly in pursuit of some vanishing thought or memory. It is mortifying that I, who have rather prided myself on the power to control my mind, should be baffled now, and by such insignificant fugitives and intruders. When I desire most to harness my thoughts down, they are all in turmoil and dart about like minnows in a brook.
