‘The Blindman's World’ (1898) is a short story by the American author, Edward Bellamy, most famous for his socialist and utopian novel ‘Looking Backward: 2000-1887’ (1888).

The Professor of Astronomy and Higher Mathematics at Abercrombie College is an expert on Mars. One night, while observing the cold, red planet, he collapses and is found lifeless on the floor by the janitor. However, something far stranger than death has visited the Professor.

This short story is a quick read filled with strange encounters and philosophical perspectives on human existence and will delight fans of Andy Weir's ́The Martian ́.

His novel ‘Looking Backward: 2000-1887’ (1888) was one of the most successful books published in the United States in the 19th century and influenced a generation of intellectuals. Referenced in many Marxist publications of the time, the book inspired the formation of Nationalist Clubs dedicated to spreading his political ideas. Bellamy’s other works include the novels ́Six to One’ (1878), ‘Dr. Heidenhoff's Process’ (1880), ‘Miss Ludington's Sister’ (1885), ‘Equality’ (1897), and ‘The Duke of Stockbridge; a Romance of Shays' Rebellion (1900)’.
