On this bonus edition of You Are What You Read, we welcome back Barbara Kingsolver with her Pulitzer Prize winning novel, Demon Copperhead. Set in the mountains of Southern Appalachia, Barbara created a world set to the music of David Copperfield by Charles Dickens to speak to a new generation of lost boys. You’ve written to us about this book, you’ve read it with your book clubs, and now Barbara shares with us her research, her process, and her inspiration for this great novel.

We'd also like to thank our sponsor Book of the Month.
