Those Without Shadows is a novel by Francoise Sagan, originally published in French as ""Un peu de soleil dans l'eau froide"" in 1969. The story revolves around a wealthy Parisian couple, Philippe and Paule, who have been married for several years but have grown apart. Philippe is a successful businessman who spends most of his time working, while Paule is a bored housewife who feels neglected and unfulfilled. Their lives are turned upside down when a young woman named Babette enters their world. Babette is a free-spirited artist who is everything that Paule is not. She is confident, independent, and passionate about life. As Philippe becomes increasingly drawn to Babette, Paule becomes jealous and resentful. The novel explores themes of love, jealousy, and the search for meaning in life. Sagan's writing is characterized by its spare, elegant prose and its ability to capture the complexities of human relationships.
