“Some drivers have already got out of their cars, prepared to push the stranded vehicle to a spot where it will not hold up the traffic, they beat furiously on the closed windows, the man inside turns his head in their direction, first to one side then to the other, he is clearly shouting something, to judge by the movements of his mouth he appears to be repeating some words, no one word but three, as turns out to be the case when someone finally manages to open the door, I am blind.” MenFirstsTurnsThreeSidesCasesDoorsCarMovementHe ManJudgingBeatsMouthsWindowBlindPreparedManageSpotsDriversVehicleTrafficOne WordShoutingStranded Author:Jose Saramago
