Author James Clavell

Narrator Ivan Litvinov

The fourth volume of James Clavell’s Asian Saga tells of financial and political intrigues in 1960s Hong Kong: Soviet spies, Chinese communists, and Taiwanese nationalists fight for power in Hong Kong with the British government, and all of them are opposed by the Hong Kong criminal underworld. “The Noble House” is a huge, wildly entertaining novel packed with characters and plotlines—a whole exotic and dangerous world you can dive into headfirst. Clavell wrote about what he knew firsthand: while creating the second volume of the Asian Saga, “Tai-Pan,” he visited Hong Kong and later returned there more than once. The author himself considered “The Noble House” one of his best works. In 1988 the novel was adapted for television—Pierce Brosnan played the main role in the miniseries “The Noble House.”
