The Society of Shame

The Society of Shame

by Jane Roper

Meet Kathleen Held, whose life spirals publicly after an unfortunate photograph of her at her husband's scandalous scene goes viral. The image reveals a period stain, catalyzing a cascade of events that lead Kathleen to unwitting internet fame and the figurehead of a social media movement, #YesWeBleed. Seeking solace, she encounters the Society of Shame, a clandestine gathering led by the notorious Danica Bellevue. Here, scandal survivors seek redemption by embracing their disgraces. As Kathleen harnesses her shame for empowerment and online influence, she risks alienating her daughter, Aggie, who is navigating her own activist journey. In a world obsessed with digital reputation, 'The Society of Shame' is a satirical yet sincere exploration of personal crisis, mother-daughter bonds, and the question of authenticity in the age of social media.
