“This is the place; this is the right place for me, it’s home.”
Demon Copperhead, Barbara Kingsolver’s Pulitzer Prize-winning return to Appalachia, is the story of a young boy growing into adulthood amid the struggle and beauty of this oft-overlooked corner of America. Kingsolver joins us to talk about the truth of Appalachian culture, how journalism made her the novelist she is today, the politics of art and more with Miwa Messer, host of Poured Over.
This episode of Poured Over was hosted by Executive Producer Miwa Messer and mixed by Harry Liang.

Demon Copperhead reminded me of my work with families and children in Eastern Kentucky. What a beautiful and hauntingly realistic work.

One of the best books I've ever read. Incredible writing. It'll haunt me for a very long time.

Am illuminating interview by two brilliant and influential women. A great balm for my disappointment that I finished Demon Copperhead and can’t keep reading! (I loved it. I’m a Northern Virginian who grew up vacationing in Highland County, VA and a lot of the places and concepts resonated with me).

Great Book. Catcher in The Rye type voice meets David Copperfield

Hi Barbbara, I have to say that this is the first time that I've read any of your books but I know that it want be the last. Demon Copperhead is the greatest book that could describe my home. If you took one step over the Estill Co line you would be in Lee County..... I'm sure that you have been to see Furnace Mountain, the first time that I've ever got in trouble for staying out to late was when I visited a girl that I graduated high school with and I stayed out of the house to late to suite my mom and dad. I was around 20 years old at the time but I never saw that girl again after that night. I can't say that I've spent much time in Lee County but only because I never had a reason to go back they're very much. My husband and I did attend the Wooley Worm Festival several years back but it's one of the things like I've been there and done that and I don't need to do it again. I've only been to the Mushroom Festival once and that was because I was in Estill Co for my brother's Memorial service. I don't go back home very often but I love reading about the area. Have a great day, Debbie
