Suludo bogati azijci

Kevin Kwan

A sharp satire of the Asian jet set, a Chinese combination of Dallas and Pride and Prejudice. A combination of golden furniture, high fashion, private jets, senseless social rules and snobbery that is fun to the point of pain.

Kevin Kwan’s hilarious debut, Crazy Rich Asians is the story of three ultra-rich Chinese families with pedigrees and the gossip, slander, and intrigue that ensue when Nicholas Young, heir to one of Asia’s largest fortunes, brings home his ABC girl (an American-born Chinese woman) to attend the wedding of the season. When Rachel Chu agrees to spend the summer in Singapore with her boyfriend Nick, she imagines a modest family home, long drives exploring the island, and quality time with the man she might one day marry. Little does she know that Nick’s family home looks more like a palace, that he’ll be flying private jets than cars, and that by marrying one of Asia’s most eligible bachelors, she’s become a prime target for attack. Brought into a world of dynastic glamour, Rachel meets Astrid, the IT girl of Singaporean society; Eddie, whose family practically lives on the covers of Hong Kong celebrity magazines; and Eleanor, Nick's terrifying mother, a woman who has a clear idea of ​​who her son should marry. Traveling through the most exclusive and fashionable locations of the Far East - from the glittering penthouses of Shanghai to private islands in the South China Sea - Crazy Rich Asians offers an insider's view of the Asian jet set, flawlessly depicting the collision of two worlds - old and new wealth, and Overseas and Mainland Chinese - and a remarkable portrayal of what it means to be young, in love and incredibly, insanely rich.
