RACHEL JOYCEA masterclass. RICHARD POWERSMasterful. Pulitzer PrizePowerful. GuardianA work of genius. KATE MOSSEDemon Copperhead is a once-in-a-generation novel that breaks and mends your heart in the way only the best fiction can.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDemons 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the southern Appalachian Mountains of Virginia, poverty isnt an idea, its as natural as the grass grows. For a generation growing up in this world, at the heart of the modern opioid crisis, addiction isnt an abstraction, its 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 hes willing to travel to try and get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuffused with truth, anger and compassion, Demon Copperhead is an epic tale of love, loss and everything in between.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLegit about to get an Id rather be reading Demon Copperhead sticker for my Nissan Murano. ROB DELANEYReaders love Demon Copperhead:***** Outstanding . . . I dont know how someone can write a book like this: inhabit a totally different character and create it with such empathy, respect and fullness.***** Powerful and brilliant. To immerse yourself in a Kingsolver novel is to put yourself in the hands of a master.***** This was one of the greatest books I have read . . . Kingsolver is a magician with words, and her rage quietly seeps from each page.***** Raw, angry, starkly beautiful . . . Genuinely one of the best books Ive ever read.***** An incredibly raw and moving read, with a big-hearted hero who will stay with me for a long time.***** I cannot overstate how absorbing this book is. It is wonderful and has restored my faith in fiction and novels.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55024982393207,"sku":"9780571376483","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/3199\/6807\/files\/9780571376483_189de85e-7de9-42a7-97ca-4dd98d19c15f.jpg?v=1741635674","url":"https:\/\/thebookhousebroughtyferry.pro\/products\/9780571376483","provider":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
