Review

"[Clavell] holds attention with a relentless grip. 'Tai-Pan' frequently is crude. It is grossly exaggerated much of the time. But seldom does a novel appear so stuffed with imaginative invention, so packed with melodramatic action, so gaudy and flamboyant with blood and sin, treachery and conspiracy, sex and murder."

"[A] belly-gutting, god-rotting typhoon of a book....Its narrative pace is numbing, its style deafening, its language penny dreadful....It isn't art and it isn't truth. But its very energy and scope command the eye."

Publisher's note

Dick Straun, a pirate, smuggler, and ruthless individual, finds glory beyond his dreams as the Tai-Pan, or supreme leader, of Hong Kong. Reissue.

Annotation

An epic fictional account of the founding of Hong Kong.
