Today we’ve been inspired by our Ways of Seeing category, and selected three fantastic books to do with perception. . Cataract: John Berger John Berger; the master of sight and insight, here describing the revelation of regained vision after a cataract operation. Selcuk Demirel illustrates brief and dreamlike passages about the newfound vividness of the color blue, the renewed whiteness of white. Berger uses his improved sight as a platform to consider the relativity of perception. His theorising, however, never loses a sense of the profound joyfulness of fresh eyes: ‘the structure and form of the flower are unchanged…what has changed is the intimacy of its coloring. It’s colours have become naked before my eyes.’ Notting Hill Editions, who published this text in their signature cloth binding and embossed cover lettering, have an entire series devoted to the most enchanting selections of essays. Well worth letting ‘Cataracts’ lead you to others in their series
