A compulsively readable, big-hearted story about a family with special gifts who sometimes stumble in their efforts to succeed in life, The Talented Ribkins draws on such novels as Toni Morrison's Sula and Colson Whitehead's The Intuitionist to weave themes of race, class and politics into a wonderfully accomplished and engaging novel by a talented new author.
