The ultimate aim of this book is to try and raise public awareness of VIPs (visually impaired people). And secondly, to raise much-needed funds for the hundreds of blind societies across the United Kingdom.
The book tells about the trials and tribulations that we VIPs have to contend with in our daily life.
The book is written from the heart and gives a unique insight to VIPs. The funny things we do, the clangers we drop, gaffes, faux pasyou name it, weve done it!
The book shows how resilient VIPs canor, rather, have todeal with our unfortunate impairment.
This book was brought about when the author lost her sight and found out just how tough the going was.
The anecdotes portray the true extent of the problem, stories told from all ages and creeds, telling of their actual stories.
In this book, you will be given an insight as to how VIPs have to live with fact of becoming invisible and the loneliness brought about by the ignorance of the public. I do not think that the public mean to be like they are, but it is through not having any understanding of our dark world.
We do very well generally, but it could be so much better without the discrimination and third-rate citizens that we are categorised with and the stigma which goes with our visual impairment.
What people think of as a simple task can be a great big problem to VIPs. When you read through this book, I think that it will open peoples eyes and help them appreciate what they have got: sight.

Autoren-Porträt von Hanoria M C Baranovich
Hanoria Baranovich was born in Urmston, England, UK, on April 21, 1954, the youngest of nine children.Hanoria lived in a big old rambling house named Ivy House. Ivy House had no electricity, just gas. She maintains that the lack of electricity was great as there were no television to get glued to; instead, they had a vast library, music rooms, and servants' quarters, which we used as dens. Hanoria and her siblings were encouraged to study music, the arts, and read the classics. Ivy House sported superb grounds, some beautiful copper beech trees, and rhododendrons, which made great outdoor dens! There were monkey puzzle trees and variegated rhododendrons and beautiful rows of yellow, sage green, and dark-green privet hedges. In the spring, all along the winding path to the front door, they had a vast array of bluebells, snowdrops, and other seasonal plants. In the summer, the spring flowers were replaced with many daffodils, tulips, hyacinths; you name it, they had it! Along the path every foot or more were big white rocks they had got in Buxton, a lovely spa town. Her mother used to make wine, and at the gable end of Ivy House was a big and very fruitful vine. Hanoria fondly remembers her mother treading the grapes at Ivy House. There was a brilliant orchard, Nan's walled-in garden, with her herb garden, and lots of space to suit all ages. There were some outbuildings, where her brother Joe had a laboratory (there was a corner in it for Hanoria, who went on to study chemistry and biology) and a big stable for the pony named Dolly.
From an early age, Hanoria has played many musical instruments and sang with a sweet soprano voice. When she lost her sight, she decided to make a CD of her singing whilst accompanying herself on her twelve-string guitar, an Echo Ranger, which she received as a gift in 1970 and which has gone with her on her many jaunts round the world. The CD is available for sale, and all proceeds will go to her charity fund.
From a young

age, Hanoria has always played a hand in raising money for varying charities, but when she lost her sight in her left eye and the central line of vision in her right eye, she quickly confronted the pitfalls of visual sight impairment-the public's reaction, the ignorance, and the discrimination-firsthand. Somehow, VIPs become invisible, and it has been Hanoria's goal to change all that. She constantly tries to raise public reaction and, at the same time, works tirelessly to raise money.
Hanoria and her husband live with Benji Boots, Hanoria's trainee golden Labrador guide dog, in a small market town named Bacup, which is on the Lancashire/Yorkshire border.
