One of my most favorite books ever was Blindness by Jose Saramago.  Get it from the library, you will not regret it!  It even won a Nobel Peace Prize.  So when I saw that he was town last night for the writer's festival AND Don McKellar was doing a reading AND Adrienne Clarkson was interviewing Jose, I HAD TO GO!!!  The pictures are not the best as the the room was dark and I was far away. 

Don McKellar...he is making a movie of the book...what I would do make some thing interesting for the movie...

Adrienne and Jose hanging out:
