KATE ATKINSON'It's EPIC. Righteously angry, DEEPLY moving and exquisitely written.' MARIAN KEYES'Daring, entertaining and highly readable.' The Times'Electrifying.' Daily Mail'A blaze of a book.' RACHEL JOYCE'A masterclass.' RICHARD POWERS'Masterful.' Pulitzer Prize'Powerful.' Guardian'A work of genius.' KATE MOSSE____________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.____________Readers love Demon Copperhead:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Outstanding . . .

Kingsolver is a magician with words, and her rage quietly seeps from each page.'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Raw, angry, starkly beautiful . . . Genuinely one of the best books I've 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.'
