This is the tale of Demon Copperhead: our hero. A boy with no assets beyond his dead father's good looks and copper-coloured hair, bucket-loads of charm and a talent or two the world is yet to discover. Born to a teenaged single mother in a single wide trailer, life is not set fair for Demon as he escorts us on this, his journey through the modern perils of foster care, athletic success and addiction, the dizzying highs of true love, and the crushing losses that can accompany it.

The Poisonwood Bible is a story told by the wife and four daughters of Nathan Price, a fierce, evangelical Baptist who takes his family and mission to the Belgian Congo in 1959. They carry with them everything they believe they will need from home, but soon find that all of it - from garden seeds to Scripture - is calamitously transformed on African soil. What follows is a suspenseful epic of one family’s tragic undoing and remarkable reconstruction over the course of three decades in postcolonial Africa.

Holding the Line, Barbara Kingsolver's first nonfiction book, is the story of women's lives transformed by an a signal event. Set in the small mining towns of Arizona, it is part oral history and part social criticism, exploring the process of empowerment that occurs when people work together as a community. Like Kingsolver's award-winning novels, Holding the Line is a beautifully written book grounded on the strength of its characters.

In this collection of essays, the author of Demon Copperhead and The Lacuna brings to us (out of one of history's darker moments) an extended love song to the world we still have. From its opening parable gleaned from recent news about a lost child saved in an astonishing way, the book moves on to consider a world of surprising and hopeful prospects ranging from an inventive conservation scheme in a remote jungle to the backyard flock of chickens tended by the author's small daughter.

Barbara Kingsolver opens her home to us, as she and her family attempt a year of eating only local food, much of it from their own garden. Inspired by the flavours and culinary arts of a local food culture, they explore many a farmers market and diversified organic farms at home and across the country. With characteristic warmth, Kingsolver shows us how to put food back at the centre of the political and family agenda.

Livia Bohusz misses her big brother, Cyrus. But since the day he took his own life, a day that changed everything, eleven-year-old Livia has also known she has no choice but to survive. Her solace is music. A gifted pianist, Livia's only escape is the quiet rapture it brings as she practices. The promise of a new life her talent might offer is intoxicating, a life away from the stifling silence that has enveloped the farm since Cyrus' death. When Livia starts college as a music major and scholarship prodigy, it feels as if a new life might begin.

Barbara Kingsolver's generous collection is divided into thematic sections that loop and interweave to form a carefully patterned whole: a series of 'How to' poems that smartly balance tongue-in-cheek pragmatism with revelatory wisdom, a complicated yet affirmative family pilgrimage to Italy, cherished childhood memories, the perils and pleasures of being a [female] writer, elegies to lost loved ones and elegies to the planet.

Una rivisitazione in chiave moderna di David Copperfield ambientata nella Virginia dei giorni nostri. Demon, figlio di una madre single e adolescente e nato in una roulotte, non possiede altro che un’arguzia feroce e un talento per la sopravvivenza. Tra i pericoli moderni dell’affidamento, il lavoro minorile, l’abbandono scolastico, il successo nello sport, i primi amori, la dipendenza e sconfitte di vario genere, Demon dovrà fare i conti con una società per la quale è invisibile, in cui persino i supereroi hanno abbandonato la provincia a favore delle grandi città.

Ein Trailer in den Wäldern Virginias. Das Land der Tabakfarmer und Schwarzbrenner, der "Hillbilly-Cadillac"-Stoßstangenaufkleber an rostigen Pickups, aufgegeben von sämtlichen Superhelden und dem Rest der Nation. Hier kommt Demon Copperhead zur Welt – die Mutter ist noch ein Teenie und frisch auf Entzug, der Vater tot. Ein Junge mit kupferroten Haaren, großer Klappe und einem zähen Überlebenswillen, trotz allem, was das Leben für ihn bereithält: Armut, Pflegefamilien, Drogensucht, erste Liebe und unermesslicher Verlust. Es ist seine Geschichte, erzählt in seinen Worten, unbekümmert, vorwitzig, von übersprudelnder Lebenskraft.

Alles scheint um Willa Knox zusammenzubrechen: Als freie Journalistin steht sie ohne Aufträge da. Ihr Mann Iano verliert seine Professur, Sohn Zeke ist gerade Vater geworden – aber alleinerziehend. Und ihr schwerkranker Schwiegervater schwärmt vom "Megafon", dem republikanischen Präsidentschaftskandidaten. Am selben Fleck, 150 Jahre zuvor, freundet sich ein Lehrer namens Thatcher mit seiner eigenbrötlerischen Nachbarin an. Die Naturforscherin Mary Treat steht in lebhaftem Austausch mit Charles Darwin, doch in der verschworenen Ortsgemeinschaft wird die Theorie von der Evolution als Sünde angeprangert.

" Né à même le sol d’un mobil-home au fin fond des Appalaches d’une jeune toxicomane et d’un père trop tôt disparu, Demon Copperhead est le digne héritier d’un célèbre personnage de Charles Dickens.

Barbara Kingsolver ontving de Pulitzer Prize en de Women's Prize for Fiction 2023 voor Demon Copperhead, een beeldend en episch verhaal over een jongen die opgroeit te midden van armoede en drugsverslaving. Damon Fields, het zoontje van een alleenstaande tienermoeder, woont in een trailer in de bergen van de zuidelijke Appalachen. Hij heeft hetzelfde koperkleurige haar als zijn overleden vader, aan wie hij ook de bijnaam 'Demon Copperhead' te danken heeft. Afgezien van goede looks, bijtende humor en overlevingsdrift zit hem weinig mee in het leven. Zijn moeder worstelt met haar verslaving aan pijnstillers.

Historien udspiller sig i en afsidesliggende dal i Appalacherne i løbet af én lang og varm sommer og beskriver tre kvinder, som på en eller anden måde ikke er faldet til i samfundet. Oppe på bjergskråningen lever Deanne Wolf et eneboerliv som vildtbiolog. I dalen nedenunder bor Lusa Landowski, født og opvokset i en storby og af samme grund aldrig accepteret i det lille samfund. I dalen bor også Nannie Rawley, der er hæmningsløs i sin kampagne for et renere miljø.
