**A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER**A masterful recasting of David Copperfield, narrated by an Appalachian boy whose wise, unwavering voice relates his encounters with poverty, addiction, institutional failures and moral collapse-and his efforts to conquer them. - the PulitzerWINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR FICTIONTWICE WINNER OF THE WOMEN'S PRIZESHORTLISTED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL FICTIONSHORTLISTED FOR THE JAMES TAIT BLACK PRIZE FOR FICTIONTHE MULTI-MILLION COPY SELLING AUTHORBOOK AT BEDTIME ON BBC RADIO 4AN OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB PICKWITH OVER 29,000 5* REVIEWS'Extraordinary.' OPRAH'She means to save us by telling us stories. . . She comes closer than anyone else I know.' ANN PATCHETT'Electrifying. . . Every sentence here sizzles.' Daily Mail'It's EPIC. Righteously angry, DEEPLY moving and exquisitely written.' MARIAN KEYES____________Demon Copperhead is a once-in-a-generation novel that breaks and mends your heart in the way only the best fiction can.Demon's story begins with his traumatic birth to a single mother in a single-wide trailer, looking'like a little blue prizefighter.' For the life ahead of him he would need all of that fighting spirit, along with buckets of charm, a quick wit, and some unexpected talents, legal and otherwise.In the southern Appalachian Mountains of Virginia, poverty isn't an idea, it's as natural as the grass grows. For a generation growing up in this world, at the heart of the modern opioid crisis, addiction isn't an abstraction, it's neighbours, parents, and friends.'Family' could mean love, or reluctant foster care. For Demon, born on the wrong side of luck, the affection and safety he craves is as remote as the ocean he dreams of seeing one day. The wonder is in how far he's willing to travel to try and get there.Suffused with truth, anger and compassion, Demon Copperhead is an epic tale of love, loss and everything in between.'Legit about to get an'I'd rather be reading Demon Copperhead' sticker for my Nissan Murano.'

To immerse yourself in a Kingsolver novel is to put yourself in the hands of a master.'*****'A must read and heart-opening book.'*****'Raw, angry, starkly beautiful. . . Genuinely one of the best books I've ever read.'*****'Amazingly complex. . . [Kingsolver] is, by far, one of the greatest living authors'
