The two-in-one: walking with Smokie, walking with blindness (Animals, culture, and society)
Blindness and visual impairment
Human-narrated audio, Human-transcribed braille
Summary
In this meditation on his relationship with his guide dog Smokie, Michalko probes into what it means to be at home with blindness. Smokie makes no judgment about Michalko's lack of sight; it simply is the condition within which they… work together. Their partnership thus allows Michalko to step outside of the conventional - and even 'enlightened' - understanding of blindness; he becomes not simply resigned to it but able to embrace it as an essential part of his being in the world. 1999.
