...Joel from her memory. When Joel finds out about it, he goes to the same doctor to have Clem erased too. It's a love story, but it's also an existential head scratcher, an endless M.C. Escher escalator. Who's to say the doomed lovers haven't fallen in love and broken up before? Maybe they've loved and lost a hundred times before, like the last damn level of a video game they can't beat? The possibility opens up bottomless gulfs of self-doubt.

Like most Indian kids, Prabhu wanted to play pro cricket. He may have fallen short on the field, but he's hitting a six in the suites. Tellabs, the Naperville, Ill., telecom-gear maker (2003 sales: $980 million) that sells data systems and voice enhancers, recently named him CEO. The board is betting on a repeat. When Prabhu, 49, was boss of Alcatel USA, a division of the French telco, revenues increased fivefold, to about $5 billion, over his three-year tenure...
