About this book
The Blindman's World is credited to Edward Bellamy, with 1898 beside the title. A note says the narrative was found among the papers of the late Professor S. Erastus Larrabee, and that the note's writer was requested to prepare it for publication. The note says it appears the professor did really, at one time in his life, have an attack of vertigo, or something of the sort, under circumstances similar to those described by him, and that his narrative may be founded on fact.
The narrative says astronomers have agreed in declaring that Mars is undoubtedly habitable by beings like ourselves, and that the narrator allowed no sort of question that it was inhabited. One reply in a conversation says that death, never an object of fear, becomes more and more a matter of indifference to the moribund as it draws nearer. The narrative describes the college buildings on the hill and a crowd of men standing about the door of the observatory.
