Recenzje

A dizzily shopaholic comedy.... Wickedly delectable.... Offers refreshing nouveau voyeurism to readers who long ago burned out on American and English aspirational fantasies.... Hilarious.
Janet Maslin, The New York Times
 
It s impossible not to get sucked into this satirical novel about the jet-setting lives of an enormous busybody family and its infinite Louboutin collection.
Glamour
 
There s rich, there s filthy rich, and then there s crazy rich.... A Pride and Prejudice-like send-up.
People
 
If this isn t the funniest book so far this year, it s up there.... Kwan, who grew up in Singapore, skewers his subjects deftly, stylishly, and completely but with heart.
The Denver Post
 
Deliciously decadent.... This 48-karat beach read is crazy fun.... [Read] Crazy Rich Asians, on an exotic beach in super-expensive sunglasses.
Entertainment Weekly

An unputdownably funny, original, modern novel.... I actually couldn't put this book down to eat or to watch Downton Abbey.
Plum Sykes, author of Bergdorf Blondes

Rachel s squeaky-clean naiveté is a clever foil to the intricate workings of the high-glamour Asian set around her. Chinese on the outside but all-American on the inside, she allows us to see the myriad nuances of intra-Asian culture that the novel goes to great lengths to show.
Tash Aw, NPR
 
Rollicking.... A lively, generous story of shallow extravagance and human devotion.
The Boston Globe
 
Original and fun, Crazy Rich Asians is quite a roller coaster trip. I loved it!
Jackie Collins, author of The Power Trip

Delightfully soapy.... [Crazy Rich Asians] eats its chiffon cake and has it too, simultaneously tut-tutting many of its characters for their vapid materialism while reveling in the milieu s sybaritic excess.
The Wall Street Journal

As spicily adventurous and lusciously satisfying as the renowned Singaporean street food Kevin Kwan s characters argue over; hot and sizzling, like the best satay, and dreamily transporting, like everyone's favorite dessert goreng pisang. Feast on this outrageously funny and insightful novel of modern manners, and enjoy!
Lisa See, author of Dreams of Joy and Shanghai Girls

[An] instant favorite.... Opulence and zaniness reign.
O, The Oprah Magazine

Like Dynasty on steroids with more private jets, bigger houses, and a lot more money.
