Crazy Rich Asians is the outrageously funny debut
novel about three super-rich, pedigreed Chinese families and
the gossip, backbiting, and scheming that occurs when the
heir to one of the most massive fortunes in Asia brings home
his ABC (American-born Chinese) girlfriend to the wedding of
the season. When Rachel Chu agrees to spend the summer in Singapore with
her boyfriend, Nicholas Young, she envisions a humble family
home, long drives to explore the island, and quality time
with the man she might one day marry. What she doesn't know
is that Nick's family home happens to look like a palace,
that she'll ride in more private planes than cars, and that
with one of Asia's most eligible bachelors on her arm,
Rachel might as well have a target on her back. Initiated into a world of dynastic splendor beyond
imagination, Rachel meets Astrid, the It Girl of Singapore
society; Eddie, whose family practically lives in the pages
of the Hong Kong socialite magazines; and Eleanor, Nick's
formidable mother, a woman who has very strong feelings
about who her son should--and should not--marry. Uproarious, addictive, and filled with jaw-dropping
opulence, Crazy Rich Asians is an insider's look at
the Asian JetSet; a perfect depiction of the clash between
old money and new money; between Overseas Chinese and
Mainland Chinese; and a fabulous novel about what it means
to be young, in love, and gloriously, crazily rich.
