Season 2024 Episode 29 | 43m 38s

Rachel Khong joins the PBS Books Readers Club to discuss her new novel "Real Americans".

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. Exuberant and explosive, 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? Can our genetic past be overcome?
