Content
editThis novel came in a new narrative form, with a chronological and spatial cover written in fiction and events taken from a real life details that belonged to a genuine reality, in which the fictional world rises to war, love, art, law, savagery, and devastation.[2]
The novel chooses to furnish its humanity the subject of blindness in all of its prejudicial symbolism and in a new approach, so that the narrative background against which the world's limits are established will be battled by forces that are visible and not visible.[2]
The characters in "The History of Extinguished Eyes" share their suffering from authoritarianism's sword, which results in the restriction of freedoms, security pursuits, displacement, and assassinations, overshadowing the fast-moving and short-term relationships in countries where freedom is restricted and whose citizens are dominated by a grueling sense of oppression and defeat.[1]
