In other world.

As I read about a man without a shadow, I fail to comprehend it. Does not having a shadow affect that man’s conduct in any way? Can that really, finally, make him feel lonely? As a matter of fact, I have neved lived without my shadow. Even in absolute darkness, a shadow exists, only its colour is the same as that of the darkness and hence its outline cannot be recognised. But it exists and it hardly breaks unless the body itself breaks. The shadowless man makes me think all this. Had I not read about him, I would have been going along fine.
