Back to EpisodesEpisode 14: [BOOK CLUB] Why we couldn't finish reading Demon Copperhead
Description
For the month of February, we selected the book Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver to read for our Read Like a Writer Book Club.
In this episode, we discuss the challenge of not being able to finish the book. We tried to glean insights from the book to apply to our own writing, but we found we were disappointed by the similarity to Dickens' classic David Copperfield.
While the book gained widespread popularity as a Pulitzer Prize winner, we were curious about it receiving this recognition, so you'll hear us touch upon this in this episode.
