FP 35,000. MAN WITHOUT A SHADOW tracks the intimate, illicit relationship between neuroscientist Margot Sharpe and charismatic Elihu Hoopes (E.H.), as scientist and subject embark upon an exploration of the labyrinthine mysteries of the human brain. Where does "memory" reside? Where is "love"? Is it possible to love an individual who cannot love you, who cannot "remember" you from one meeting to the next? Made vivid by her exceptional eye for detail and her keen insight into the human psyche, this is a unique story of forbidden love, a kind of secret, evolving marriage, depicted in Joyce Carol Oates's tight, impassioned prose.
