Legally Blind

Duncan Stroud is a sixty-year-old U.S. citizen from New York City and father of three, currently hiding out in Argentina where he fled to after his business was crushed by Robert De Niro, was sentenced to jail for a crime he did not commit, and was given a year to live due to a medical condition. This is the autobiographical story of that autistic boy’s sixty-year journey through life, a journey that goes from paradise to homelessness, poverty to riches, his days as a pioneer and inventor in Internet technology and holography with institutions such as IBM and MIT, ending up on the U.S. Marshal's Wanted list, on the U.S. government’s passport blacklist, over $1,000,000 in debt, and a suspected terrorist sympathizer. But his story is more that just an account of his adventures. This book is an examination of social, political, spiritual, and emotional issues at the core of our lives, and delves into the esoteric and arcane with stories of ghosts, aliens, saints, and demons as well as the works of philosophers, revolutionaries, scientists, gamblers, gurus, geniuses, and madmen to illustrate and deconstruct the nature of reality and the meaning of life.
