William Paulinha—a resourceful gay Filipino sex worker barely getting by in New York—is determined to turn his life around when he crosses paths with Shem C., an on-the-rise author now disgraced and exiled from both his marriage and the city’s literary inner circle. Furious at the world that cast him out, Shem finds in the intelligent and pliable William the perfect accomplice for his plans.
Under Shem’s tutelage, William reinvents himself as “Master Chao,” an enigmatic Feng Shui consultant catering to New York’s wealthiest and most self-satisfied classes. As doors swing open and fortunes are arranged and rearranged, William is pulled ever deeper into the private anxieties and secret desires of the powerful, discovering just how much people will pay to believe that even their moral rot can be purified and saved.
Blending razor-sharp satire with tenderness and psychological insight, Fixer Chao traces a dazzling ascent built on illusion and audacious transformation. By turns funny, devastating, and electrifying, Ong’s writing asks what it takes to remake oneself in America—and what, if anything, remains when the performance finally ends.

批評家のレビュー
“An audacious New York caper. . . .Brilliantly funny and addictively caustic.”
—Vulture
“The New York satire you need to read today.…Ong has an acerbic, breezy style that swings between blithe social satire and noirish intrigue. A more melancholy thread runs through [Fixer Chao], the familiar ache of the displaced immigrant….Could be a Coen brothers movie in the way of mixed malevolence and antic absurdity.”
