Real Americans by Rachel Khong

Real Americans by Rachel Khong

An exhilarating novel about American identity that spans three generations in one family, and asks: What makes us who we are? How inevitable are our futures? In immersive, moving prose, Rachel Khong weaves a profound tale of class and striving, race and visibility, and family and inheritance — a story of trust, forgiveness, and finally coming home. Real Americans is a social novel par excellence that asks: Are we destined, or made? And if we are made, who gets to do the making?
