Who doesn't love a get-rich-quick scheme? That's the conceit of Mohsin Hamid's witty and wicked novel How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia, which cleverly mimics the self-help genre to tell the story of one man's rise from rural poverty to massive wealth. Hamid, a Booker Prize finalist and New York Times bestselling author, gives voice to the relentless churning of our global moment. Hamid is joined in conversation by WBEZ's Alison Cuddy.
