I guess the attack took his eye. A real shame. This man spoke at our college once… he’s an excellent writer, and he doesn’t deserve the crap that’s been piled on him over the years by religious fanatics.
I remember reading somewhere that other than the unfortunate loss of his eye, he has otherwise completely recovered. Although I’m sure he will never be the same psychologically. He had to live in hiding for years before that. What a way to have to go through life! But he absolutely deserves that award. He’s a rabble-rouser, proud of it and good at it. And he’s usually right too.
