Crazy Rich Asians

The international sensation, now a MAJOR MOTION PICTURE featuring Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Michelle Yeoh, and Gemma Chan, takes you on a whirlwind journey with Rachel Chu. Invited to spend the summer in Singapore with her boyfriend, Nicholas Young, Rachel anticipates a cozy family home and cherished moments with her potential future husband. However, she discovers that Nick has omitted some crucial details: his family home resembles a palace, his upbringing involved more private planes than car rides, and he is Singapore's most sought-after bachelor. Rachel soon finds herself in the midst of a challenging landscape filled with established wealth, new fortunes, intrusive relatives, and aspiring socialites. "Crazy Rich Asians" is an exhilarating tale full of surprise and humor. Jackie Collins praises it as an original roller coaster ride. Anna Wintour from Vogue describes it as mordantly funny, while Elle finds it a juicy look at Singapore's elite. Vanity Fair compares it to "Dynasty on steroids," and The New York Times calls it a shopping-crazed comedy. Plum Sykes notes that it's irresistibly funny, and Independent highlights its ability to captivate even reluctant readers. The Guardian equates it to a literary version of Vogue, while Glamour warns it's impossible to resist getting absorbed. Wall Street Journal finds it delightfully dramatic, and People Magazine likens it to a "Pride and Prejudice" parody. Tash Aw lauds it as a breathless, fast-paced romp, Lisa See admires its outrageous humor and insights, and O, The Oprah Magazine, acknowledges the story's lavishness and eccentricity. Michael Korda concludes by calling it shrewd, funny, and sexy.
