It does seem a tough sell: a family drama about a former senator (James Cromwell) trying to reconnect with his three grown daughters in Seattle (let's hope none of them are wolves).

...black speech that rivals the dialogue in Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man. Mosley, the son of a black maintenance supervisor and a white Jewish mother, has, like Ellison, a nuanced appreciation for black-white relationships that goes beyond the stereotypes that mar much recent fiction by black authors. Gone Fishin', of course, is not in Invisible Man's league; few novels are.
