We are gathering in Chinatown Manhattan to celebrate the launch of THE EXPAT, Hansen Shi's debut novel about a ~disaffected~ young Asian American software engineer who hates his NPC life in San Francisco and gets recruited as a Chinese industrial spy by a sexy CCP honeypot. No relation to the author, this book is about someone else. Party starts at 8pm. RSVP required - free entry and open bar. PRAISE FOR THE EXPAT "The Expat is a first-rate novel of modern spycraft, complete with honeypots, dark web recruiters, triple agents, and international proxy wars...Like a Tesla, The Expat is sleek, fast, and unexpectedly deadly, and Hansen Shi's talent is so giant that it's a bit suspicious... I wonder who he's working for?" - Tony Tulathimutte (Author of Private Citizens and Rejection) “The main character in Hansen Shi's excellent debut spy novel is an alienated young man named Michael Wang. I wanted this moody espionage tale to go on longer.” - Maureen Corrigan on NPR Fresh Air HATE FOR THE EXPAT "after reading interior chinatown, i find it a chronic issue that so much of what defines the chinese american experience is shame, humiliation, emasculation, and generational trauma. while these are definitive factors, i'd like something different please...asian men do better challenge, impossible." - Sara from Goodreads "This book had strong voice, but Michael is just an unlikeable character. Overall I didn't find the book very interesting and found the ending disappointing." - Jessica from Goodreads
