Shadows

In the spring of 1958, a young editor at a literary agency faces a hangover and a burst of inspiration that leads him to create an outline for his first novel, originally titled Shadows. As he transitions from his job and prepares to return to college, he completes the manuscript, which is eventually accepted by a major publisher under the revised title Strange Are the Ways of Love. Years later, he reflects on the publishing journey and decides to reclaim the original title for this republishing of his debut work, embracing his identity as Jill Emerson in the literary world.
