Blinding Light is a 2005 novel by Paul Theroux.
The novel had a mixed reception, with many reviewers not seeing it as entirely successful.[1] The novel depicts an American writer and his female companion on their trip to Ecuador and its backcountry. After returning to Martha's Vineyard, the book explores their relationship against the backdrop of the social scenery of Martha's Vineyard, the Clinton–Lewinsky scandal, and the process of book writing and publishing, among other things.[1][2]
