“Seeing” is a sequel to José Saramago’s “Blindness,” exploring societal reactions and transformations following the restoration of sight to the citizens. Set four years after the events of “Blindness,” this narrative focuses on an election in a city where the majority casts blank votes as a symbolic act. “Seeing” scrutinizes political and social issues, critiquing democratic systems and governmental responses to the electoral crisis and its effects on individuals and society. Saramago skillfully questions the nature of power and politics while highlighting the inseparability of political and ethical actions.
