"I have gone blind. My career as a writer and journalist is over. I have gone blind. Or, to be more precise, I am partially blind or “visually impaired”, to use the convoluted language of doctors. Basically, I can no longer read and therefore cannot write either. For a writer, this is the end, if you like, and in its own way romantic, but I would gladly have spared myself it."
