A globetrotting, whirlwind, tragicomic family saga that wrings tears from absurdity and laughter from loss. A joy to read from start to finish. Andrew Sean Greer, author of Less, winner of the 2018 Pulitzer PrizeThe Nest meets Crazy Rich Asians in this sharp comedic novel about a ChineseAmerican family's attempts (or not) to fulfill its dying patriarch's final bequest.Some of us are more equal than others....Meet Stanley Huang: father, husband, exhusband, man of unpredictable tastes and temper, aficionado of allinclusive vacations and bargain luxury goods, newly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. For years, Stanley has claimed that hes worth a small fortune. But the time is now coming when the details of his estate will finally be revealed, and Stanleys family is nervous.For his son Fred, the inheritance Stanley has long alluded to would soothe the pain caused by years of professional disappointment. By now, the Harvard Business School graduate had expected to be a financial tech god not a minor investor at a middling corporate firm, where he isnt even allowed to fly business class.Stanleys daughter, Kate, is a middle manager with one of Silicon Valleys most prestigious tech companies. She manages the capricious demands of her worldfamous boss and the needs of her two young children all while supporting her wouldbe entrepreneur husband (just until his startup gets off the ground, which will surely be soon). But lately, Kate has been sensing something amiss; just because you say you have it all, it doesnt mean that you actually do.Stanleys second wife, Mary Zhu, twentyeight years his junior, has devoted herself to making her husband comfortable in every wayrubbing his feet, cooking his favorite dishes, massaging his ego. But lately, her commitment has waned; caring for a dying old man is far more difficult than she expected.Linda Liang, Stanleys first wife, knows her ex better than anyone. She worked hard for decades to ensure their financial security, and is determined to see her children get their due. Single for nearly a decade, she might finally be ready for some romantic companionship. But where does a seventytwo year old Chinese woman in California go to find an appropriate boyfriend?As Stanleys death approaches, the Huangs are faced with unexpected challenges that upend them and eventually lead them to discover what they most value. A compelling tale of cultural expectations, career ambitions and our relationships with the people who know us best, Family Trust skewers the ambition and desires that drive Silicon Valley and draws a sharply loving portrait of modern American family life.
