From the the award-winning author of Five Star Billionaire and The Harmony Silk Factory comes a whirlwind personal history of modern Asia, as told through his Malaysian and Chinese heritage.
In The Face: Strangers on a Pier, acclaimed author Tash Aw explores the panoramic cultural vitality of modern Asia through his own complicated family story of migration and adaptation, which is reflected in his own face. From a taxi ride in present-day Bangkok, to eating Kentucky Fried Chicken in 1980s Kuala Lumpur, to his grandfathersโ treacherous boat journeys to Malaysia from mainland China in the 1920s, Aw weaves together stories of insiders and outsiders, images from rural villages to megacity night clubs, and voices in a dizzying variety of languages, dialects, and slangs, to create an intricate and astoundingly vivid portrait of a place caught between the fast-approaching future and a past that wonโt let go.
โMr. Aw is a patient writer, and an elegant one. His supple yet unshowy prose can resemble Kazuo Ishiguro's.โฆ He's a writer to watch."
โDwight Garner, The New York Times
โTash Aw is an essential voice for the global world we live in today."
โYiyun Li, author of Gold Boy, Emerald Girl
โAw is emerging as a master storyteller.'
โThe Times
โAw's prose can be powerful and mesmerising in its sense of placeโฆand psychological acuity. Haunting and memorable.โ
โMaya Jaggi, The Guardian
