About this listen
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. Un romanzo che parla a una nuova generazione di giovani che si sentono dispersi e senza un posto nel mondo.

Story
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.

Story
Set in the mountains of southern Appalachia, Demon Copperhead is the story of a boy born to a teenaged single mother in a single-wide trailer, with no assets beyond his dead father’s good looks and copper-colored hair, a caustic wit, and a fierce talent for survival. Relayed in his own unsparing voice, Demon braves the modern perils of foster care, child labor, derelict schools, athletic success, addiction, disastrous loves, and crushing losses.

Story
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.

Story
" Déjà, je me suis mis au monde tout seul. Ils étaient trois ou quatre à assister à l’événement, et ils m’ont toujours accordé une chose : c’est moi qui ai dû me taper le plus dur, vu que ma mère était, disons, hors du coup. " 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.

Story
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.

Story
Brilliantly executed and compulsively listenable, Unsheltered is the story of two families, in two centuries, who live at the corner of Sixth and Plum, as they navigate the challenges of surviving a world in the throes of major cultural shifts. In this mesmerizing story told in alternating chapters, Willa and Thatcher come to realize that though the future is uncertain, even unnerving, shelter can be found in the bonds of kindred - whether family or friends - and in the strength of the human spirit.
