Crazy Rich Asians: By Kevin Kwan | Digest & Review
Description
Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan Digest & Review. Crazy Rich Asians is a funny fiction novel written by Kevin Kwan that highlights and ridicules the lifestyle of upper-class Asian families and society. The book is about three wealthy, upper-class Chinese families, and how they undermine those who are not as rich and influential as them. It shows the scheming, gossip, and backbiting that occurs when Nicholas Young, the heir to one of the richest families in Asia, brings his girlfriend, Rachel Chu, home to one of the greatest weddings of the season. Rachel is an American-born Chinese girl who doesn't come from a very rich family. Her presence causes jitters among the guests. Kevin Kwan himself comes from a wealthy and established family in Singapore, which is why he knows so much about these things. Many readers have described Crazy Rich Asians as a "delightful read," and have given it a four-star rating on Amazon. With this digest companion, you'll enjoy: - A digest of the Crazy Rich Asians - Content for your book club or other group event. - Stories beyond the digest and tidbits you may not know - The book's impact and its important to read - And more! What other readers are saying: "You can read it before you read the novel or after you read it as a supplement to the actual book." "Very concise and helpful for our Book Club." "It is full of story information, interesting facts about the novel and the author as well." "This overview gave me an idea of what the book covers. From it, I have been able to decide whether or not to purchase the book." "The Digest helped clarify the historical background. Beautifully written and deeply moving."
