Abstract
This paper aims to study blindness as a physical
impairment and as a metaphor in The Geometry of God by Uzma Aslam
Khan. The paper uses both medical and literary discourse to provide
functional definition of blindness, as opposed to strictly medical
definition. The paper first establishes the ground by defining blindness
and then analyses the selected text in detail to show how the author reinterprets
blindness as a physical impairment by challenging
oculocentrism, and extends it metaphorically to the rest of society.
