By: Teju ColeIn this innovative synthesis of words and images, the award-winning author of Open City and photography critic for The New York Times Magazine combines two of his great passions.
One of Time’s Top 10 Non-Fiction Books of the Year • One of Smithsonian’s Ten Best Photography Books of the Year
When it comes to Teju Cole, the unexpected is not unfamiliar: He’s an acclaimed novelist, an influential essayist, and an internationally exhibited photographer. In Blind Spot, readers follow Cole’s inimitable artistic vision into the visual realm as he continues to refine the voice, eye, and intellectual obsessions that earned him such acclaim for Open City.
Here, journey through more than 150 of Cole’s full-color original photos, each accompanied by his lyrical and evocative prose, forming a multimedia diary of years of near-constant travel: from a park in Berlin to a mountain range in Switzerland, a church exterior in Lagos to a parking lot in Brooklyn; landscapes and interiors, beautiful or quotidian, that inspire Cole’s memories, fantasies, and introspections. Ships in Capri remind him of the work of writers from Homer to Edna O’Brien; a hotel room in Wannsee brings back a disturbing dream about a friend’s death; a home in Tivoli evokes a transformative period of semi-blindness, after which “the photography changed. . . . The looking changed.”
As exquisitely wrought as the work of Anne Carson or Chris Marker, Blind Spot is a testament to the art of seeing by one of the most powerful and original voices in contemporary literature.
Praise for Blind Spot

“This lyrical essay in photographs paired with texts explores the mysteries of the ordinary.”—The New York Times Books Review (Editors’ Choice)
“Stunning . . . feels like the fulfillment of an intellectual project that has defined most of [Cole’s] career.”—Slate

Squeaker Pinches Hand
Color: Blue Dog Ball Launcher with Squeaking Handle, Size: One-Size
I toss balls 50-75 feet into the air. Works our my dog. I can actually throw a ball over 150 feet, so the dog gets a good workout. The squeaker is unnecessary and it does pinch my hand on a long toss.

Game changer
Color: Blue Dog Ball Launcher, Size: One-Size
This has been such a game changer in playing fetch with my dogs. The ball fits inside great and it throws smoothly and goes quite a distance.

Learning curve - but super fun
Color: Blue Dog Ball Launcher with Squeaking Handle, Size: One-Size
Okay- don’t get me wrong I know how to use a chuck it. But the handle of this has a squeaker - which is fantastic to get my ADHD dog to focus! Buuttt beware- it will take off your fingernail if you aren’t holding it properly when throwing. I learned that the hard way. Twice.
