"Mr. Hamid reaffirms his place as one of his generation's most inventive and gifted writers." –Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "A globalized version of The Great Gatsby . . . [Hamid's] book is nearly that good." –Alan Cheuse, NPR "Marvelous and moving." –TIME Magazine From the internationally bestselling author of The Reluctant Fundamentalist and Exit West, 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 that most 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.
When Justin Lang chooses Cara Kinkaid’s restaurant for an important finance meeting and enters her kitchen, Cara learns quickly that he’s all about control. Accustomed to giving orders and having those orders obeyed, Justin insults Cara from the get-go by telling her how—and what—to cook. Although she’s irritated by his arrogant attitude, Cara finds Justin’s commanding presence, overt sensuality, and masculine good looks impossible to resist. She flirts with him shamelessly—and then puts Justin in his place by creating a tantalizing gourmet event for his investors. Flirtation quickly transforms into passion, and Cara and Justin spend the better part of a weekend in bed together. As the hours pass in a haze of passion, they explore their appetites and each other’s bodies. But Cara questions the intensity of their connection, afraid that it borders on obsession and mirrors her past relationships. Justin demands control in bed every bit as much as he does in the boardroom. Will Cara submit completely to Justin’s desires? Can Justin offer Cara something deeper than physical pleasure? And what consequences will Cara face if she gives up control to remain in Justin’s bed?

Dirty A poem by Blaire Leon If sex is dirty, why would I do it with someone I love? If sex is dirty, then didn't we all come from the dirt? What if I like the dirt? What if I want to get dirty? What if I want to roll in the mud until I'm so fucking filthy that I'll never be clean again? When twenty-five-year-old graduate assistant Caiden Brenner asked Blaire Leon how old she was, she said she was a senior. He chose to believe she meant in college. They connect over Lord Byron's Don Juan and, as their conversations become increasingly thicker with sexual innuendo, Caiden finds himself obsessing over a totally off-limits undergrad who's bold, beautiful, brilliant, and one of the most passionate poets he's ever met. But it turns out Blaire hasn't been totally honest. She's the seventeen-year-old valedictorian of her high school class, taking courses at Sierra State while awaiting her acceptance to Stanford. Will Caiden get too deeply into Blaire to back away before he finds out the truth? Or will their connection be enough to seduce him into risking his entire future on Jail Bait? "A thousand and one feels....Getting Dirty is a thrilling, tantalizing forbidden romance you do not want to miss! I not only devoured this book, it devoured me right back!"--Katy Evans, New York Times Bestselling author of REAL
