Demon Copperhead is a 2022 novel by Barbara Kingsolver.It is in fact an update of Charles Dickens's David Copperfield, set in 20th and 21st century Appalachia. The protagonist is one Damon Fields, who gets the nickname "Demon Copperhead", the former a nickname for "Damon" and the latter coming from his red hair. The plot follows David Copperfield pretty closely, right down to Damon being born with a caul like David Copperfield was—except Damon is born to a teenaged mother who lives alone in a trailer park and has struggled with alcoholism and drug addiction. "Mom" Fields tries to stay sober and keep her job at Walmart so she can look after David, and her neighbors the Peggots (taken from the Peggotys in David Copperfield) try and help her out. But when Mom marries an abusive, thoroughly evil truck driver, Murrell Stone aka "Stoner" (Mr. Murdstone in David Copperfield) things get much worse for young Damon.The story plays out from there, as the novel uses the framework of David Copperfield to examine life in Appalachia, focusing on the region's endemic poverty, and the devastation of the opioid crisis. | |

Title Drop: At the end of Chapter 2, when Damon says that the kids at school turned "Damon" into "Demon", and he also started getting called "Copperhead" due to his wiry reddish hair, and that he was OK with the combination "Demon Copperhead". | |

Mythology Gag | |
Demon Copperhead / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Mr. Dick flies a kite on which he writes "Never be mean in anything. Never be false. Never be cruel. I can always be hopeful of you." These are words said by Betsey Trotwood to David in David Copperfield, the book this one is adapted from. This is more overt later when teenaged Damon, who has mostly tuned out of high school, says he liked a book by...Charles Dickens. | |

Bland-Name Product | |
Demon Copperhead / int_2b5ea43c | comment |
Bland-Name Product: One of the sub-themes of the book is how the rest of America demeans and insults the people of Appalachia as hillbillies and rednecks. Tommy, who has gotten a job at the local newspaper, takes particular offense at a newspaper comic called Stumpy Fiddles that is nothing more than a collection of lazy, insulting hillbilly stereotypes. Stumpy Fiddles is an obvious analog of Real Life comic Snuffy Smith. | |

Tomboyish Name | |
Demon Copperhead / int_3820a9ea | comment |
Tomboyish Name: Coach Winfield's daughter, the character that corresponds with David Copperfield's Agnes Wickfield, is named Angus. That combined with the shapeless clothes she's wearing causes Damon to mistake her for a boy at first meeting, leaving him extremely embarrassed when he finds out. (Later Damon finds out that in fact her name is "Agnes" and Angus was a first-grade insult from other kids that Agnes/Angus adopted as her own nickname.) | |

At one point when Stoner is being an abusive asshole and yelling at Damon and Mom, Damon reflects that his sympathy for Mom was dwindling as it was her fault in the first place for marrying him. | |

Demon Copperhead / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: The book follows the plot of David Copperfield pretty closely, but adapting Dickens's Doorstopper of a novel required some edits. In Dickens, Mr. Murdstone has an awful bitch of a sister, Jane Murdstone, who contributes to making David and Clara's lives miserable. In this novel, Murrell Stone has no sister and torments Mom and Damon all by himself. | |

Pop-Cultural Osmosis Failure | |
Demon Copperhead / int_7a2d9301 | comment |
Pop-Cultural Osmosis Failure: A Running Gag with Damon, who is smart, but ignorant of the wider world. Damon misses Mouse's allusion to a famous movie, in an exchange that also foreshadows Fast Forward's pursuit of Emmy. Angus says Damon, whose knee was never properly treated, is still limping around "like Quasimodo". Damon's angry response is "I don't really know who that is, but thanks." Near the end, June says that Emmy is living in Asheville with other girls in recovery, in a building where Grace Kelly once lived. | |

Department of Child Disservices | |
Demon Copperhead / int_8afadb7e | comment |
Department of Child Disservices: A sad, realistic example. When Damon comes into the system, the Department of Social Services is horribly overworked and underfunded. DSS mostly forgets about Damon because there are so many children; they know that Mr. Crickson aka "Creaky" takes in kids solely for the check and to use them as slave labor on his farm, but they still send Damon there because there's just nowhere else he can go. Damon's case worker Miss Barks means well but really is just marking time until she can go to college and get a teaching degree; she completely forgets about getting Damon clothes before sending him to Creaky's farm, and when she finally remembers weeks later and says that she'll get his clothes Damon boggles at how he would have been living in filthy rags for weeks if he'd depended on her. When she tells him that she's quitting the DSS to become an elementary school teacher, Damon thinks ruefully about how DSS pays so little that the only people it attracts are losers and burnouts. | |

Country Mouse: Little Damon, who has been growing up in a trailer in the sticks, is thoroughly ill at ease when he's taken to visit some Peggot relations in Knoxville. He is shocked by the very idea of an apartment building, of the endless rows of doors that all open onto the same hallway, and how no one has a yard. Later, Damon is shocked to find out that some places have garbage trucks, rather than everyone hauling their garbage to a landfill. When Betsey starts looking for a place to put Damon, he specifically says he doesn't want to go to any city. When he briefly stays in Richmond, he can't believe how close the houses are to each other. | |

Edgy Backwards Chair-Sitting: Stoner does this when he comes home from work, on the same day that Damon has come home from foster care. "He turned one of the kitchen chairs around and sat in it backward, straddling it with his arms folded on the back." It's a clear effort to intimidate his 10-year-old stepson. Much later, after Damon says "You hate Dori, don't you?", Angus does this. Damon reflects on when Stoner did it and how two people couldn't be any more different, before Angus tells the truth: no, she likes Dori, because Dori makes Damon happy. | |
