In Skeleton Keys, he looks inward, making us keenly aware of the marvels of the bones that give us the scaffolding we need to survive. Perhaps if it had been marketed as contemporary fiction focusing on dysfunctional families the lack of a plot or a mystery wouldn't have mattered. For me it was most effective in its portrayal of a monstrous, powerful figure casting a shadow across far too many people; I suspect it’s one of those books in which different readers will find different meanings. Eleanor doesn’t want to get involved in Golden Bones business, rejecting the money her family can provide her, turning into a recluse, reluctantly joining the family gathering with her 15 years adopted daughter. Grappig detail is dat de schrijver en de illustrator zich voorstellen achteraan het boek, helemaal in de tekenstijl die je doorheen het boek terugvindt.

Being named after the central character in a fictional book written by your father has not given Eleanor Churcher an easy life. When Arabella ends up in anorphanage, Stitch Head leaves Grotteskew and its creatures behind and sets out on a daring rescue.
