How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia by Mohsin Hamid

while i could never shake off the sense that the second person address didn't amount to much more than a gimmick, I am a sucker for novels that stretch from childhood to old age, and even more of a sucker for a poignantly happy ending. even if the self-help structuring was a little bit too clever for its own good, and the plot perhaps not especially complex or exciting, Hamid's intelligent and shrewd observations make this nevertheless enjoyable
