I bought that book after it won the PULITZER. #DEMONCOPPERHEAD is an excellent novel about poverty in the Appalachian South. It's the only book by #BARBARAKINGSOLVER that I've ever read. I think it would make for a great film but IDK who they'd find to play the title role?! Be a hard one to cast.

Book: M L Wang, Blood over Bright Haven
Book: Octavia Butler, Dawn
Book: Han Kang, We do not part
In 2025 I read 150+ books. I read to relax: the more stressed I am, the more I read.
Last year's best fiction: old favourites ( #RobinHobb, #UrsulaLeGuin, #OctaviaButler), new fantasy authors ( #TKingfisher, #MLWang), also first time with the amazing #HanKang and #BarbaraKingsolver. #booksky
Ein dicker Roman (Hardcover, Barbara Kingsolver: Demon Copperhead, dtv) und ein wuchtiger, großer und dicker Comic (Hardcover-Omnibus, Doug Murray, Michael Golden etc.: The Nam, Marvel) stehen leicht schräg nebeneinander auf hellem Holzparkett vor dunklem Sofa.
Meine Lektüre für die #Feiertage: Mit u. a. dem grandiosen Zeichner #MichaelGolden durch Vietnam. Und mit der herrlichen Erzählstimme von #BarbaraKingsolver durch die Appalachen. #boosky #comics #bücher #thenam #demoncopperhead #lesen #geschenke #weihnachten #marvel @dtv-verlag.bsky.social

“Don’t try to make life a mathematics problem with yourself in the center and everything coming out equal. When you are good, bad things can still happen. And if you are bad, you can still be lucky.” — Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible
#QOTD #BarbaraKingsolver #Quotation #Merit #NoKarma…
A favorite line from Barbara Kingsolver's novel *The Poisonwood Bible*: "Illusions mistaken for truth are the pavement under our feet. They are what we call civilization."

I don't like #Zombies or #Sci-fi
My favorite non-fiction writers growing up were #BarbaraKingsolver and #JodyPicoult
I also love #LordByron poems
Based on this, which #JoyceCarolOates books would make me happy?
I have never read her books because I grew up in a place that didn't have her books
