Book description
New York Times Editors' Choice PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for Debut Fiction Finalist Winner of the VCU Cabell First Novelist Award Selected as A Best Book of 2016 by: NPR BuzzFeed PopSugar Refinery29 Electric Literature Self Elle "A fresh Little Miss Sunshine." - Sloane Crosley, in Vanity Fair "Bright and funny...when the Wangs take the world, we all benefit."-USA Today "Richly entertaining . . . Chang's smart and engaging novel remains defiantly cheerful. Perhaps this is because its ultimate subject, across a colorful span of geographies and cultural settings, is love."-The Guardian "Jade Chang is unendingly clever in her generous debut novel....As much as THE WANGS VS. THE WORLD is about Asian-American identity, it is also a sprawling family adventure compressed into a road trip novel. The result is a manic, consistently funny book of alternating perspectives as the Wangs make various cross-country stopovers in their 80s station wagon...[A] compassionate and bright-eyed novel." -New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice) "Sharply funny."-New York Times "Fresh, energetic, and completely hilarious, The Wangs vs. the World is my favorite debut of the year." - Jami Attenberg, author of Saint Mazie and The Middlesteins "A moneyed Chinese-immigrant clan loses it all, then takes a healing, uproarious road trip across the United States." -Entertainment Weekly "With mischievous, Dickensian glee, Chang's prose power-drives the appealingly dysfunctional family, now a disgrace to the wet dream of capitalism, through their postfall paces . . . Chang's confident, broad-stroke, and go-for-broke style makes her fresh twist on the American immigrant saga of the woebegone Wangs one of 2016's must-reads . . . You will laugh your ass off while learning a thing or two about buying into, and then having to bail on, the American dream. But mostly, you'll get to savor, thanks to a wildly innovative plot twist, the I Chang of this diabolical dramedy: how it's love, not money, that really makes the world, and all the people in it, go round."-Elle "It all comes crashing down for Charles Wang, so he and his family hit the road. This endearing debut is more fun than you'd expect from a trip with this backdrop."-Marie Claire "On the brink of financial ruin, Charles Wang has a plan to start over in his homeland of China. But first, he has to reunite the fam via a madcap, cross-country road trip from their palatial Bel Air digs."-Cosmopolitan "a highly entertaining debut novel . . . A meditation on what it means to be an immigrant in America, The Wangs vs. the World shows the often surprising ways hardship can bring a dysfunctional family closer together." -BuzzFeed "[Chang's] book is unrelentingly fun, but it's also raw and profane - a story of fierce pride, fierce anger, and even fiercer love....The Wangs vs. the World drives home the fact that there is no one immigrant experience - just humanity in all its glorious, sloppy complexity, doing its best to survive and thrive despite the whims of society and circumstance. With plenty of laughs, both bitter and sweet, along the way."&m - jQuery(function() { jQuery( "#tabs" ).tabs(); });
