From the author of Raised by Wolves comes a sharply satirical novel about class divisions, relationships and the dangers of mixing the two. Perfect for readers of Kiley Reid and Celeste Ng.

Amy Chan is a queer, twenty-something artist, broke and living one bad shift away from financial disaster. Edward Smith is affluent and white, his descent into a lonely middle age cushioned by generational wealth. This is the story of their relationship – one that is lopsided, transactional and arguably doomed from the start, but that shifts their worlds in unexpected ways.

Because, as Amy comes to understand, in Edward’s world love isn’t bigger than money – it just learns to speak its language.

People With Money is a darkly funny debut about the need for connection and the absurd negotiations that privilege smuggles into love.

About Amplify Bookstore

An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.

Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.

We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
