Abstract
As search committees look for new and promising common readers for their college campuses, titles from recent years still offer excellent options. A decade after it was originally published, How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia by Mohsin Hamid showcases the life and personal wisdom of a nameless boy who escapes poverty in a developing nation, making it a worthy candidate for common reader consideration. Through exquisite storytelling, Hamid’s narrative fiction provides scholarly communities a wide range of topics for heartfelt and thought-provoking discourse, fostering empathy, perspective-taking, and critical thinking skills.
