A glorious novel about empires and erasures, husbands and wives, staggering fortunes and unspeakable misery . . . Fun as hell to read.” —<i>Oprah Daily</i><br><br>"A genre-bending, time-skipping story about New York City’s elite in the roaring ’20s and Great Depression." —<i>Vanity Fair</i><br><br>“A riveting story of class, capitalism, and greed.” —<i>Esquire</i><br><br>"Exhilarating.” —<i>New York Times</i></b><br><br>Even through the roar and effervescence of the 1920s, everyone in New York has heard of Benjamin and Helen Rask. He is a legendary Wall Street tycoon; she is the daughter of eccentric aristocrats. Together, they have risen to the very top of a world of seemingly endless wealth—all as a decade of excess and speculation draws to an end. But at what cost have they acquired their immense fortune? This is the mystery at the center of <i>Bonds</i>, a successful 1937 novel that all of New York seems to have read. Yet there are other versions of this tale of privilege and deceit.<br>Hernan Diaz’s <i>TRUST </i>elegantly puts these competing narratives into conversation with one another—and in tension with the perspective of one woman bent on disentangling fact from fiction. The result is a novel that spans over a century and becomes more exhilarating with each new revelation.<br>At once an immersive story and a brilliant literary puzzle, <i>TRUST</i> engages the reader in a quest for the truth while confronting the deceptions that often live at the heart of personal relationships, the reality-warping force of capital, and the ease with which power can manipulate facts.
