The Amazon listing indicates the protagonist of *A God in Ruins: A Novel * is Teddy Todd, for what it’s worth, so I don’t know that a hypothetical person who’d read only that book would have been able to answer this one.

Ursula is Teddy’s sister, and appears in both books.

Were you Jimmy Smits’s first big TV role?
Were you the most famous resident of Larkhill Resettlement Camp?
Were you the first white child born in what is now North Carolina?
