Kevin Kwan, bestselling author of Crazy Rich Asians (soon to be a MAJOR MOTION PICTURE starring Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Michelle Yeoh and Gemma Chan) and China Rich Girlfriend, is back with an uproarious new novel of a family riven by fortune, an ex-wife driven psychotic with jealousy, a battle royal fought through couture gown sabotage, and the heir to one of Asia's greatest fortunes locked out of his inheritance.
When Nicholas Young hears that his grandmother, Su Yi, is on her deathbed, he rushes to be by her bedside—but he's not alone. The entire Shang-Young clan has convened from all corners of the globe to stake claim on their matriarch’s massive fortune. With each family member vying to inherit Tyersall Park—a trophy estate on 64 prime acres in the heart of Singapore—Nicholas’s childhood home turns into a hotbed of speculation and sabotage. As her relatives fight over heirlooms, Astrid Leong is at the center of her own storm, desperately in love with her old sweetheart Charlie Wu, but tormented by her ex-husband—a man hell bent on destroying Astrid’s reputation and relationship. Meanwhile Kitty Pong, married to China’s second richest man, billionaire Jack Bing, still feels second best next to her new step-daughter, famous fashionista Colette Bing. A sweeping novel that takes us from the elegantly appointed mansions of Manila to the secluded private islands in the Sulu Sea, from a kidnapping at Hong Kong’s most elite private school to a surprise marriage proposal at an Indian palace, caught on camera by the telephoto lenses of paparazzi, Kevin Kwan's hilarious, gloriously wicked new novel reveals the long-buried secrets of Asia's most privileged families and their rich people problems.
Kevin Kwan is the author of the international bestsellers Crazy Rich Asians, soon to be a major motion picture, and China Rich Girlfriend. Born in Singapore, he has called New York’s West Village home since 1995.
最近在练习坐地铁、这本真的是地铁阅读物。哪里有有声书?我也想听。=_= // 太久没坐地铁、变成枢纽站的过去熟悉的站也陌生了、今天约等于在家门口迷了路。是以为记。2020.01.06 // 有点点难看。全靠脑补《CRA》的影视卡司。
评分戊戌40。为了看下Astrid和Charles的糖看到了这里……
评分比 1 烂,虽然 diversity 问题少了点。好多中国国家????席的场景,目测电影不会拍。没看2看了3也能看懂。audiobook 这本 narrator 很厉害,1 的太糟糕了。
评分最后写阿嬷的特别感人,印象深刻。
评分英文版小时代三部曲终于读完。荒谬的大部头。
这本书居然是在德国一个小城市的书店里找到的,实在是太奇怪了。Krefeld 的民众老龄化,穆斯林移民社区,完全不像是个会看这本书的人。可偏偏在众多的德语书中小块的英语书里,生生挖到了这本书。 开篇讲到达沃斯论坛,连着去了两年,稍微有点了解。对证件颜色和其背后的代表意...
评分当Nicholas Young听说他祖母Su Yi生命垂危时,连忙火箭般的速度冲到祖母床前。然而,床边并不只有他一个人。Shang-Young整个家族无论散布在全球哪里,都冲回家,来到这个大家长的床前,看似是关心,其实各个心怀鬼胎想着巨额遗产。他家有个Tyersall 乐园,在新加坡中心地区占地...
