    Paragraph: Initiating the conversation and hoping to keep her from realizing that he was blind, he described the scenery from his memories.

                                                  The Eyes are not Here Summary in English<\/h2>\n

                                                  A blind man was traveling all alone in a train compartment when at Rohana a girl got in.<\/p>\n

                                                  It was clear that her parents had come to see her off as they were giving her instructions as what to do and what not to.<\/p>\n

                                                  When the train left the platform, he asked her where she was going. She was startled on hearing his voice and said that she had not noticed that anyone was there.<\/p>\n

                                                  The narrator decided that he would try his best not to make it apparent that she was blind.<\/p>\n

                                                  Both started talking and the narrator spoke about Mussoorie. Then they discussed the scene outside the window.<\/p>\n

                                                  Listening to the girl talk the narrator thought that her voice was like the sparkle of a mountain stream.<\/p>\n

                                                  When they reached Saharanpur the girl said good-bye and went away leaving a lingering perfume behind her.<\/p>\n

                                                  A man had got in at that station. He spoke to the narrator and told him that he would not find him as interesting a traveling companion as the girl who had left.<\/p>\n

                                                  The narrator enquired of him whether she had long hair or short hair. The man replied that he hadn’t noticed.<\/p>\n

                                                  He only knew that she had beautiful eyes, but of what use was that as she was blind. He further asked the narrator if he hadn\u2019t noticed it.<\/p>\n
