Lee is vividly good on the subject of Americans abroad." <i><b><i>—The New York Times Book Review<br /></i></b><br /></i> "<i>Sex and the City</i> meets <i>Lost in Translation</i>." —The Skimm<i><br /></i></b><br /> Janice Y. K. Lee's <i>New York Times</i> bestselling debut, <i>The Piano Teacher</i>, was called "immensely satisfying" by <i>People,</i> "intensely readable" by <i>O, The Oprah Magazine,</i> and "a rare and exquisite story" by Elizabeth Gilbert. Now, in her long-awaited new novel, Lee explores with devastating poignancy the emotions, identities, and relationships of three very different American women living in the same small expat community in Hong Kong.<br /> Mercy, a young Korean American and recent Columbia graduate, is adrift, undone by a terrible incident in her recent past. Hilary, a wealthy housewife, is haunted by her struggle to have a child, something she believes could save her foundering marriage. Meanwhile, Margaret, once a happily married mother of three, questions her maternal identity in the wake of a shattering loss. As each woman struggles with her own demons, their lives collide in ways that have irreversible consequences for them all. Atmospheric, moving, and utterly compelling, <i>The Expatriates</i> confirms Lee as an exceptional talent and one of our keenest observers of women's inner lives.<br /> <i>From the Hardcover edition.</i>.
