Amidst this hothouse atmosphere, a tragic incident causes three American women’s lives to collide in ways that will rewrite every assumption of their privileged world: Mercy, a young Korean American and recent Columbia graduate, once again finds herself compromised and adrift, trying to start her life anew; Hilary, a wealthy housewife, is haunted by her struggle to have a child, hoping to save her uncertain marriage; meanwhile, Margaret, once the enviable mother of three, tries to negotiate an existence that has become utterly unrecognizable after a catastrophic event. Faced with unthinkable choices, these three women form a profound connection that defies the norms of the sequestered community—finding in each other a strength borne of need, forgiveness, and ultimately hope.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAtmospheric and utterly compelling, \u003ci\u003eThe Expatriates\u003c\/i\u003e showcases Lee’s exceptional talent as one of our keenest observers of women’s inner lives.","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43380283834623,"sku":"9780143108429","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780143108429_s600x595.jpg?v=1775587654","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780143108429","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
