Barbara Kingsolver on DEMON COPPERHEAD
\u201cThis is the place; this is the right place for me, it\u2019s home.\u201d
Demon Copperhead, Barbara Kingsolver\u2019s 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.\xa0
