Grant Us Eyes is a book-length close reading of Bloodborne by literary critic Nathan Wainstein (LA Review of Books, Cartridge Lit, American Book Review).
Grant Us Eyes situates the game’s oft-discussed difficulty in relation to a much longer tradition of difficult art – surrealist painting, the modernist novel, etc. Wainstein probes the difficulty of Bloodborne’s fragmented narrative, the difficulty of its graphical and aural glitches, the difficulty of the philosophical problems it poses, and the difficulty of performing close analysis itself within a medium that still doesn’t have established, agreed-upon methods of interpretation in the way literature and film do.

📰 Praise for Grant Us Eyes:
“Grant Us Eyes shows us new dimensions of art, and new modes of experience, in FromSoftware’s masterpiece Bloodborne. The sophistication, clarity, and intensity of Wainstein’s book sets a new standard for writing about games.”‑ Michael Clune, author of Gamelife"Mustering thinkers like Theodor W. Adorno, Roland Barthes and Michael Fried to support his arguments, Wainstein describes Bloodborne as a continuation of the modernist impulse to push art forward by challenging the expectations, and sometimes the patience, of its audience."- Ethan Davison, The New York Times
