Jungian's philosophy depicts that everyone has a shadow; an inner demon, a dark and repressed side of ourselves that we hide from the rest of the world. These theories play a key role in Robertson Davies' novel, "Fifth Business". Throughout the book, the protagonist struggles with his shadow which takes the form of the guilt he has been harboring since a traumatic incident in his childhood. This monologue explores the perspective of a lesser character, David + his shadow. Enjoy! ;)

A story that is told in three different perspectives: ISABELLA DEL VECCHIO, the anxiety-ridden, closeted new girl with a hopeless crush on another girl, who has absolutely no relations to the dead boy. As she finds the girl that she yearned for crying in a bathroom stall over the death of one of her friends, she finds herself getting pulled deeper and deeper into the death of the boy that she hasn't even ever spoken to in person. NATHAN SMITH, the star player and captain of the baseball team, the most popular boy in school, and absolutely heartbroken over his best friend's death. He's confused, bewildered, sad and angered all at once.
