Saramago’s Way of Writing

As I’m reading Blindness, I started to think that Saramago made the book’s format with no names, no location, no dialogue, and lots of run on sentences without any context and for no reason, but now I don’t think that’s the case. I believe that the format is like that to show the disorder within his story. People are becoming blind in his story, so does it really matter? After the suspenseful laws were given, you could almost feel like the tone of the story will shift to a darker and more entropic phase.
