***Traditional Character Edition***

"In the country of the blind, the one-eyed man is king" repeats in Chen Fangyuan’s mind after he finds himself trapped in a valley holding a community of people for whom a disease eliminated their vision many generations before and no longer have a concept of sight. Chen Fangyuan quickly finds that these people have developed their other senses to compensate for their lack of sight. His insistence that he can see causes the entire community to believe he is crazy. With no way out, Chen Fangyuan begins to accept his fate until one day the village doctors believe they now understand what is the cause of his insanity… those useless round objects in his eye sockets.

He was educated at a private school in Bromley, Midhurst Grammar School; and the Normal School of Science, now the Royal College of Science, London [...] parents were shopkeepers from a working-class background. His father's shop failed and the family struggled financially. His two older brothers were apprenticed to a draper and his mother was employed on an estate as a housekeeper. It was there that H.G. discovered, in the owner's extensive library, the works of Jonathan Swift and other important writers of the Enlightenment, including [...] a teen-ager, Wells was apprenticed as a draper, but eventually quit. He became a teacher and won a scholarship to the Normal School of Science, London University, where he studied a variety of subjects, including physics, chemistry, astronomy and [...]' first novel, The Time Machine, became an overnight literary success when it was published in 1895.
