Sightless

Set amid the busy streets and competitive society of Hong Kong, Sightless is the story of James, who, at the age of fifteen, takes an interest in a blind boy at his high school. In 1960s Hong Kong, a blind person getting an education is an anomaly, and what's more, John is attending the top-tiered La Salle College. James's curiosity gets the better of him, and he strikes up a friendship with the Blind Boy, as he's dismissively referred tp at La Salle. Through the years of their friendship, James learns to see the city and the people around him in new ways, as he helps John navigate life without sight, and finds his own way to adulthood.Based on mostly true events, author James Y Hung gives readers a glimpse of life in the sightless world of a young orphan trying to survive in an unforgiving and high-pressure society.
