Book
The one-eyed man / Ron Currie.
"A man in his early forties has lost his wife, his sense of self, and--according to most--his mind. Alone in his grief, and weary of a world filled with lies and delusions, he becomes a doomed truth teller, misunderstood by friends and strangers alike. After intervening in an armed robbery, though, he finds himself the inadvertent star of a reality TV show. Together with Claire, a grocery store clerk with a sharp tongue and a yen for celebrity, he travels the country, ruffling feathers and gaining fame at the crossroads of American politics and entertainment. But soon he discovers that the world will fight viciously to preserve its delusions about itself. How Currie's unconventional hero comes to find peace, to reenter the world, and to be touched again by emotion and empathy makes for a dramatic, utterly memorable story." -- Dust jacket.
