Anne Parrish liked Clifford's review of Demon Copperhead: "I hope someone makes J.D. Vance read this book, which makes way more sense than his vile HILLBILLY ELEGY. And you don't have to have read DAVID COPPERFIELD to appreciate this story; you only have to be somewhat aware of what's going on in this world." Read more of this review »
