March Online Book Club: Demon Copperhead

Online
Book Club

We have created an online book club exclusively for UBC alumni, focusing on lifelong learning, leadership, harnessing creativity, communication skills and much, much more. The book club will connect through a private forum where alumni can discuss the current book and connect with each other.

The Next Online Book Club Selection

Follow one boy’s effort to defy the odds amid the US opioid epidemic in Barbara Kingsolver’s Dickensian tale Demon Copperhead.

Born to a drug-using teen mother in the American South, Damon “Demon” Fields must use his wit, charm, and instincts to face challenges of poverty, foster care, and addiction. Author Barbara Kingsolver modernizes Charles Dickens’ Victorian epic novel David Copperfield in the powerful story of resilience Demon Copperhead.

SIGN UP NOW

Join the alumni UBC Online Book Club to read and discuss the novel Demon Copperhead, starting on March 15.  

Joining the book club is completely free. You just have to pick up a copy of the book—at your library, UBC Bookstore (save 12% with your Alumni Card), or online—to enjoy. The group will read one book every two months, so you will have plenty of time to read.

Plus, you don’t have to commit to reading every book—we’re not grading you.
