THE INSPIRATION FOR EXPATS--AN ORIGINAL SERIES STARRING NICOLE KIDMAN--NOW STREAMING ON PRIME VIDEO "Devastating and heartwarming, and exquisite in every way, this is a book you'll fall deeply in love with and never want to put down."--Kevin Kwan, author of Crazy Rich Asians   From the New York Times bestselling author of The Piano Teacher, a searing novel of marriage, motherhood, and the search for connection far from home. In the glittering city of Hong Kong, expats arrive daily for myriad reasons--to find or lose themselves in a foreign place, and to forget or remake themselves far from home. Amidst this hothouse atmosphere, a tragic incident causes three American women's lives to collide in ways that will rewrite every assumption of their privileged world: Mercy, a young Korean American and recent Columbia graduate, once again finds herself compromised and adrift, trying to start her life anew; Hilary, a wealthy housewife, is haunted by her struggle to have a child, hoping to save her uncertain marriage; meanwhile, Margaret, once the enviable mother of three, tries to negotiate an existence that has become utterly unrecognizable after a catastrophic event. Faced with unthinkable choices, these three women form a profound connection that defies the norms of the sequestered community--finding in each other a strength borne of need, forgiveness, and ultimately hope.   Atmospheric and utterly compelling, The Expatriates showcases Lee's exceptional talent as one of our keenest observers of women's inner lives.…
