“Lies and Weddings,” Kevin Kwan‘s second entry in the “Cities” trilogy, follows a nobleman’s son as he seeks a wealthy woman to marry to save his family from financial ruin.⁠
⁠
The story unfolds in England, Hawaii and Morocco, while providing economic and social commentary. But unlike “Crazy Rich Asians,” it delves into mixed-race heritage and gender issues, marking a thematic shift for Kwan.⁠
⁠
“I’ve branched out. I’m inspired by this new generation of Asians who are so much more comfortable in their own skin,” he told the New York Times.⁠
