Blindness (ORR number 3)

Title: Blindness
Author: Jose Saramago
Genre: Fiction

I read another 50 pages and I am now on page 150. Here is what happened in this 50 pages.

The blind still had problems organizing themselves but they got better in it. It was hard sort out all the food and then split it equally when you can't even see. Of course there were always some thieves who want to take all the food but there was still one person who could see. This person was the doctor's wife. She helped a lot but she did not tell anyone that she could see. If she would tell anyone then everybody would ask her to do something for them and that would be hard with more than 200 blind people. One day the ward where the doctor and his wife were in they sent out some people to get the food from the hallway. Suddenly the people in the wards heard the other blind outside in the hallway scream and yell. Coughing the two men, who were supposed to bring the food to the doctor's ward, came back. They said that there were other blind people outside who occupied the food. They have sticks and they don't want to give you the food. They say you have to pay for it. So the doctor and his wife and some other blind people in this ward went out on the hallway. The doctor's wife, who could see said that there are too many and they have sticks which they broke of from the trees. Now the blind had to give them all their expensive things that they had like coins, diamonds, golden necklaces, rings and even more other stuff. Then they got their food.

This was the main problem in these fifty pages. There were more and smaller problems in these pages.
