  • Summary

  • In this episode we chat with Andrew Leland, who in 2023 published The Country of the Blind: a Memoir at the End of Sight. In a Guardian review of the book, Andrew is praised for how he "articulates beautifully, with energy and honesty, how being held between seeing and blindness has changed him and his views on our ableist world."

    Words are Andrew's life: he has been editor of the Believer magazine since 2003 and has written for titles including the New Yorker and New York Times Magazine.

    Andrew's recommended book was Jellyfish Have no Ears by Adele Rosenfeld.
