I Keep My Exoskeletons to Myself - Summary
Set in a dystopian world where guilt is punished with shadows instead of prison, the story follows Kris, a young mother struggling with the loss of her wife and raising a child. Both Kris and her child are marked with second shadows, making them outcasts in a discriminatory society.
Key Themes
The Burden of Guilt and Shame
In Crane's dystopian society, punishment is externalized and visualized through shadows that serve as constant reminders of past mistakes, branding individuals in society's eyes. Kris must navigate life with her own shadow while raising a child who is similarly marked.
The Power of Queer Love and Community
Despite the dark reality, the novel offers hope through a community of outsiders who support each other. Kris finds strength in memories of her deceased wife and her love for her child.
The Search for Identity and Forgiveness
Kris struggles with her role as a mother in a discriminating society while searching for her own identity. Through confronting her past and dealing with her shadows, she embarks on a journey of self-discovery and seeks forgiveness.
