"The Guardian" called this a "tasty Succession novel." Good one!
And the theme is borrowed from Dostoyevsky's "Brothers Karamazov, another Succession-like tale.
This was a very intersting book, but a bit long, I thought.
From the Guardian review:
"...a writer cutting through the darker depths of what it means to be treated as an outsider in America. At the novel’s halfway point we are confronted with the words “THREE MONTHS LATER”. The central events on which the plot turns have taken place off stage, in an unlit space. Chang is more interested in consequences, and she has great fun unpicking the slightly breathless trial that occupies the final third of the book."
Here's a book I should read again, for sure.
