"where he died without even having seen the magnificent cathedral for the confined reasons that he was blind and it hadn't yet been built"

I do like that the chapters are pretty short though. They're easy just to blitz one before bed.

I'm not sure if it's just because I'm tired or because of the writing. But I took very little of that chapter in. Weirdly for a book that is meant to be a good starting overview you do need to have a bit of knowledge for some things to make total sense.
