Kevin Kwan's books have been translated into 30 languages. The Crazy Rich Asians trilogy also included China Rich Girlfriend and Rich People Problems. At one point in 2018, the three books held the top three spots on the New York Times Bestsellers List. His new book is Sex and Vanity. During this podcast, Kevin discusses Sex and Vanity, the success of Crazy Rich Asians, his writing process, and racism directed against Asian Americans in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
