When I read LOTR as a kid, I couldn't stand the scene descriptions that ran for multiple pages. Drove me mad, didn't understand what it was there for. Many years later I discovered I have aphantasia, no wonder I hated it.

i was just watching a video about a woman who also has aphantasia! You’re unable to visualize a scene right? I have the opposite i think: i have visual hallucinations ever since age 18

I don't see detailed images in my head, at best I get a blurry flash. But I can still visualize in a different way... I "know" what's supposed to be in the scene, and relationship of objects to other objects. Kinda like this, except I don't see it, I sense it...
