Image description: The title and author are written in a bold, sans-serif, capitalized font in the center of the cover. "Demon Copperhead" is in red, there is a small sketched flag on the tail of a kite which reads, "a novel," above "Barbara Kingsolver," in blue. Two circular 'stickers' in the bottom right of the cover read, "Oprah's Book Club 2022," and "Winner of the Pulitzer Prize." The cover itself is a cream-white background with drawings around the border in pencil-sketch style. A dark black border surrounds everything with filigree designs drawn inside the black. The bottom of the cover is a hillside with a sunset in the distance. Above and around the rest of the border are different drawn designs - from bottom left, counter-clockwise: A fire; buttons; a pencil; the silhouette of a boy running with a kite; moths; an open book; an old boom-box; mushrooms and ferns; a fir tree; a large spider on a football; a wood saw; a long snake; a jar of pills with a crown on top; a distant mountain with more fir trees; more mushrooms; a log with an ax stuck into it; two pick-axes crossed over in an 'x' shape; a mining helmet; two sneakers tied by the laces hanging down from the top border; more mushrooms, two crows approaching a birdhouse box on a gnarly branch, there are sparrows in and around the birdhouse seemingly defending against the crows; a motorcycle; flowers and leaves; a skateboard; a piece of a log cut into a wooden disc; loose pills; the top half of a skeleton.
