In a desperate attempt to preserve his identity, he sets out to (somewhat faithfully) record the most formative moments of his life-ranging from the brutal murder of his childhood girlfriend, to a diagnosis of rapid-cycling bipolar disorder, to opening for famed indie band Yo La Tengo at The Fillmore in San Francisco. When Rob Roberge learns that he's likely to have developed a progressive memory-eroding disease from years of hard living and frequent concussions, he is terrified by the prospect of becoming a walking shadow. An intense memoir about mental illness, memory and storytelling, from an acclaimed novelist.
