General Analysis

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"A Closed and Common Orbit" by Becky Chambers explores themes of identity, societal prejudice, and the search for belonging. The book follows Sidra, an artificial intelligence adapting to life in a body kit, as she navigates a society that views A.I.s as tools rather than individuals. Simultaneously, the book tells the story of Jane, a young Human escaping a life of exploitation. Both main plots show the resilience of characters seeking their own paths, as well as critique societal prejudices. The protagonists and their allies challenge biases through kindness, empathy, and rebellion, all while advocating for a more inclusive society. Ultimately, the journeys of Sidra and Jane highlight the power of connection.
