The Seeing Glass: A Memoir

Trama

When a rare optic condition strikes Jacquelin Gorman, colors one by one vanish from her spectrum and her vision begins to falter. She quickly finds herself in a race against the encroaching darkness, frantically studying family photos, the faces of her daughter and husband, and the geography of her home, committing them to the realm of memory, where she will retreat when the world she has known dissolves into a hard steel wall of grayness.
