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.
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..
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.
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.
