Résumé

Michalko and Goodley along with Smokie invite each other and the reader to imagine, to look and dream, through different perspectives. On behalf of Smokie (a dog guide), Michalko wondered why Goodley’s recent book Disability and Other Human Questions excluded non- human animals. Smokie, after all, had many insights to share about his journey into blindness when he and Michalko were together-together (how he referred to their relationship during Smokie’s physical life). That provocation led to a months-long epistle relationship exploring what it means to be blind, to see, and the feeling of blindness.
