A stunningly powerful novel of humanity's will to survive against all odds during an epidemic by a winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature.

An International Bestseller - "This is a shattering work by a literary master."--Boston Globe

A city is hit by an epidemic of "white blindness" which spares no one. Authorities confine the blind to an empty mental hospital, but there the criminal element holds everyone captive, stealing food rations and raping women. There is one eyewitness to this nightmare who guides seven strangers--among them a boy with no mother, a girl with dark glasses, a dog of tears--through the barren streets, and the procession becomes as uncanny as the surroundings are harrowing. A magnificent parable of loss and disorientation, Blindness has swept the reading public with its powerful portrayal of our worst appetites and weaknesses--and humanity's ultimately exhilarating spirit.

"This is a an important book, one that is unafraid to face all of the horror of the century."--Washington Post

Good for the price. Some limitations
Size: 0.7 ft, Style: USB-C
These work well. Make sure you don't put too much current draw on it. In my case I'm using it just for a keyboard and mouse. When I added a 2.5 inch HDD it stopped working. Re-read the instructions and sure enough power draw is the problem. BUT - it still works well for my application as long as I don't expect too much power delivery.

Very good product
Size: 2 ft, Style: USB-C
This is the second one I order. This time, the blue LED light is so weak, that is difficult to tell it is connected. But it works, and works very well! I would buy another, if I needed it.

Great for adding USB ports to any USB-C device.
Size: 0.7 ft, Style: USB-C
I needed this to allow for more USB connections on my laptop. It is totally compatible with any USB-C device. I like the small blue LED on it that shows it is powered on. It's very small and lightweight and inconspicuous in design. Love the value for the price.
