'It'll make you weep' Elle For fans of Diane Chamberlain and Jodi Picoult, this is an emotional, page-turning and high-concept debut about a mother who gives birth to a blind baby. Twyla Ridley, resourceful, optimistic, has just had her first child. It's what she and her husband, Dylan, have always wished for. However, Charlie is blind. For the first time in her adult life Twyla feels truly tested. She cherishes her son, showering him with love and boundless affection, but there's a part of her that aches for him to see. So Twyla throws herself into motherhood with a very private agenda, because maybe, if she strives hard enough, she'll be able to find a way to fix him. But is it a risk worth taking? Blind is about how hard we battle for our children and how blind we can be to the secrets of those closest to us. It's a story that delves into the very heart of our dangerous yearning for perfection.

Blind | Cath Weeks

She was vaguely aware that she had lost the wrong parent, that she had lost the one whom she had known inside out and had kept the bare one.

Cath Weeks has written a piece of fiction that you find yourself so completely lost in that suddenly it is real and you are one of the characters. Ask yourself this question ... if your child was born blind, how far would you go in order to give your child the capability to see? That is the bones of Blind and it is one heck of a ride that encompasses a mother's every growing need and desire for her child, despite what others close to her think.
