About this ebook
NYU professor Nicholas Young and his Chinese-American girlfriend and economics professor Rachel Chu are about to get married, but Rachel misses her unknown father. Nick's mother, Eleanor, shows up uninvited during their wedding rehearsal and tells them that she is finally giving her approval for them to get married. An accident reveals who Rachel's father is and suddenly, Rachel and Nicholas find themselves having their honeymoon in Shanghai. It turns out that Rachel's father is "China rich." This highly entertaining novel is seen as a critique of China’s hyper-accumulated wealth. Author Kevin Kwan packs the novel with brand names of everything the rich touch and eat. He shows the China rich's boastful and extravagant ways.
Crazy Rich Asians Trilogy is an international bestseller. The first book has been turned into a film with an all-Asian star cast, the first time it has happened in international film history in 20 years.
