  • كيفن كوان (بالإنجليزية: Kevin Kwan)‏ (1950 في سنغافورة)؛ فنان، مؤلف وروائي سنغافوري-أمريكي. (ar)
  • Kevin Kwan (nar. 1973 v Singapuru) je singapursko-americký spisovatel, autor satirických románů z asijské vysoké společnosti. Proslavil se již první knihou (Crazy Rich Asians, 2013, č. 2015), podle níž byl následně natočen i stejnojmenný úspěšný film (2018). Vtipně a čtivě v ní reflektuje život superbohatých vrstev singapurské, hongkongské a čínské společnosti s jejich okázalým utrácením, bizarními zvyky i tradičním kastovnictvím. Asijští čtenáři oceňují i to, jak Kwan vystihl rodinný tlak na jednotlivce v asijské společnosti, jakož i intrikánství uvnitř rozvětvených elitních rodin či mezi nimi. Kniha se stala bestsellerem a postupně byla přeložena do více než 30 jazyků. Následovaly další dva romány Bohatá čínská přítelkyně (China Rich Girlfriend, 2015; česky 2016) and Problémy bohatých lidí (Rich People Problems, 2017), které na prvotinu navazují. Po této trilogii přišel Kwan v roce 2000 s dalším románem Sex a marnivost (Sex and Vanity, 2020), jenž má vážnější ladění. (cs)

  • [Kevin] Kwan knows that the small, silly parts of being human are our softest spots. And that softness is where we find our deepest humanity ... Kwan doesn't focus on making Asians cool; he focuses on making our stories whole. The bits we're proud of, the bits we try to hide, the tremendous heart that beats underneath it all. (en)
