Sobre IBD

Paul Shreeve is an English professor who gets mistaken for a ghost by his neighbors. Though a man of strict rationality and analysis, he cannot shake his ghostly identity, nor will his neighbors allow him to forget. The ghost moves into his thoughts, his work, and his family and begins to chew at his very existence. His head, which drove his entire life, is confounded by something he can’t quite touch. His ghosted self drives him to the fringes of rationality and beyond as he looks for something, anything, to help drive it away.Full of larger-than-life departmental intrigues and wacky adventures, Ghost In Theory is an unfortunately all-too-accurate look into the daily life of an academic. What is real? What is imagined? What is metaphor? Protagonist and reader alike can only guess, as Shreeve’s mental deterioration reveals tragedies both immediate and historical. A must-read for anyone who has ever attended a faculty meeting.
