A personal memoir recounting the author’s sudden loss of sight on 11 January 2008 and the journey that followed. Margareth Maganga, born in Musoma, Tanzania in 1988, describes waking one morning unable to see and the long adjustment that ensued as she continued her education. Written from her perspective as a law student at the University of Leeds, the book offers a candid, first-person account of navigating blindness while pursuing academic ambition and a commitment to justice. More than a narrative of hardship, it is a reflection on resilience, family, and the often-overlooked gift of sight. Internationally distributed by African Books Collective.
