His mother barely makes a living and all they have is the single-wide trailer they call home. Set in the mountains of southern Appalachia, Demon is born to a single, teenaged mother with a drug addiction. Inspired by a trip Kingsolver took to visit the actual Bleak House of Charles Dicken’s fame, the story of Demon Copperhead unspooled from there. It’s lengthy and deals with some heavy topics but then my book club selected it for April so there I was with my copy, eagerly reading and flipping those pages.
Not sure what I expected when I picked this one up but the characters have stayed with me.ĭemon Copperhead had been on my list for a very long time but it never seemed like the right time to read it.
