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.
Kevin Kwan is the author of "Crazy Rich Asians," the international bestseller now being adapted as a major motion picture. The sequel, "China Rich Girlfriend," will be released on June 16, 2015. Born and raised in Singapore, Kwan has called Manhattan home for the past two decades but still craves pineapple tarts and a decent plate of Hokkien mee.

在新加坡出差的时候忍不住入手的书,当时电影已经上市,但为了先看书就忍着没去看,反而去参观了好几处电影拍摄点,比如安祥山等等。 估计我属于喜欢‘恶趣味’一类的吧,这本书看得津津有味。故事性其实一般,但是因为其实普通话粤语潮汕话英文都懂,也去过书中提及的许多地方...
评分 评分1. 总体还行,读起来饶有兴致。满足人们对顶级富豪阶层的偷窥欲,同时也佐证,烦恼不管有钱没钱,总是有的。 2. 太多时尚方面的内容,不懂。但是富豪阶层的鄙视链,虽然没有亲历(我这脸有多大,想着“亲历”)但看起来似乎都是合乎情理的。作者,应该如其所言,也是那里出来的...
评分刚开始看的时候作者狂拽名牌奢侈品还觉得挺没劲的。然后不用说男女主角都是俊男靓女咯,好人也都人美心善,坏人一般都跟暴发户一样。不过后面越看越上瘾。情节是一般般,可是一看到新加坡大妈讲英文前都会加个Aiyoh,Alamak什么的我就好想笑哈哈哈。哎呀会不会四娘粉看小时代也...
李家坡暴发户的屎屁尿。浪费时间读这本破书,还不如重读一遍红楼梦。
评分Chap 5弃。本来期待的是wealth report类的社会讽刺杂文,结果竟然是上帝视角完美男主琼瑶小言!29岁女博士如何嫁入豪门,还有比这更人坚不拆的吗?!
评分新加坡版中年小时代 亚洲版gossip girl,一本过长的马桶读物,形容词大词典,对lah的错误使用大全。我这辈子读过两本“xxx时报排行榜top”的书,一本是五十度灰 一本是这个。怎么说呢…消遣时间是很可以了 但是有那时间干啥不好呢
评分Chap 5弃。本来期待的是wealth report类的社会讽刺杂文,结果竟然是上帝视角完美男主琼瑶小言!29岁女博士如何嫁入豪门,还有比这更人坚不拆的吗?!
评分美版小时代。男主脑补了王思聪,女主脑补了生活大爆炸的Amy 博士。笑得打滚。讲真,我现在觉得我国网文界可以朝美国市场进军了
