WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTIONNew York Times Readers Pick: Top 100 Books of the 21st Century An Oprahs Book Club Selection An InstantNew York TimesBestseller An Instant Wall Street Journal Bestseller A #1Washington PostBestseller A New York Times "Ten Best Books of the Year" "Demon is a voice for the agesakin to Huck Finn or Holden Caulfieldonly even more resilient. Beth Macy, author ofDopesick"May be the best novel of [the year]. . . . Equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking, this is the story of an irrepressible boy nobody wants, but readers will love. Ron Charles,Washington PostFrom the acclaimed author of The Poisonwood Bible and The Bean Trees and the recipient of the National Book Foundation's Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters,a brilliant novel that enthralls, compels, and captures the heart as it evokes a young heros unforgettable journey to maturitySet in the mountains of southern Appalachia, Demon Copperhead is the story of a boy born to a teenaged single mother in a single-wide trailer, with no assets beyond his dead fathers good looks and copper-colored hair, a caustic wit, and a fierce talent for survival. Relayed in his own unsparing voice, Demon braves the modern perils of foster care, child labor, derelict schools, athletic success, addiction, disastrous loves, and crushing losses. Through all of it, he reckons with his own invisibility in a popular culture where even the superheroes have abandoned rural people in favor of cities.Many generations ago, Charles Dickens wroteDavid Copperfieldfrom his experience as a survivor of institutional poverty and its damages to children in his society. Those problems have yet to be solved in ours. Dickens is not a prerequisite for readers of this novel, but he provided its inspiration. In transposing a Victorian epic novel to the contemporary American South, Barbara Kingsolver enlists Dickens anger and compassion, and above all, his faith in the transformative powers of a good story.Demon Copperheadspeaks for a new generation of lost boys, and all those born into beautiful, cursed places they cant imagine leaving behind. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
