From the internationally bestselling author of The Reluctant Fundamentalist , the boldly imagined tale of a poor boy’s quest for wealth and love.
His first two novels established Mohsin Hamid as a radically inventive storyteller with his finger on the world’s pulse. How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia meets that reputation—and exceeds it. the astonishing and riveting tale of a man’s journey from impoverished rural boy to corporate tycoon, it steals its shape from the business self-help books devoured by ambitious youths all over “rising Asia.” It follows its nameless hero to the sprawling metropolis where he begins to amass an empire built on thatmost fluid, and increasingly scarce, of goods: water. Yet his heart remains set on something else, on the pretty girl whose star rises along with his, their paths crossing and recrossing, a lifelong affair sparked and snuffed and sparked again by the forces that careen their fates along.
How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia is a striking slice of contemporary life at a time of crushing upheaval. Romantic without being sentimental, political without being didactic, and spiritual without being religious, it brings an unflinching gaze to the violence and hope it depicts. And it creates two unforgettable characters who find moments of transcendent intimacy in the midst of shattering change.

評分A fate-of-half-life style love story in the form of self-help book, a new approach to a romantic novel. The writer adopts a different writing style that is both refreshing and touching. He writes like a gentle version of Junot Diaz.
評分its a very boring book to me...the 2nd person point of view confuses me ...the book is quite an innovative once since it is a parody of self-help bk while what it tells is a person's life story,but i just didnt have the interest in reading it ~_~ i dont know what i've learned about life/love/getting rich
評分文字優美 邏輯粗俗 憤世嫉俗中飽含深情 雖然是寫巴基斯坦的但對得起書名,適應於大部分亞洲國傢。有我對中國的很多想法和認識。25日飛機上讀完//太逗瞭 看得坐錯公交瞭
