Penguin Books reintroduces the timeless story of the love affair
between a British artist and a Chinese prostitute.
Robert is t he only resident of the Nam Kok hotel not renting
his room by the hour when he meets Suzie at the bar. She becomes
his muse and they fall in love. But even in Hong Kong, where many
white expatriates have Chinese mistresses, their romance could
jeopardize the things they each hold dear. Set in the mid-1950s,
"The World of Suzie Wong" is a beautifully written time capsule of
a novel. First published more than fifty years ago, it resonated
with readers worldwide, inspiring a film starring William H olden,
a ballet, and even a reggae song. Now readers can experience the
romance of this groundbreaking story anew.
