Kevin Kwan discusses his internationally best-selling novel, Crazy Rich Asians, with readers from around the world. 

Chinese-American academic Rachel Chu lives a modest and happy life with her boyfriend and fellow academic Nick. But when Nick invites her home to Singapore to meet the family, everything changes – starting with the first class flights. 

Saturated with wildly wealthy and deliciously dysfunctional super-elites,  this ironic and funny rom-com makes a perfect escapist summer read.
