“Serous and beguiling…a magnificent novel about empires and fades, husbands and wives, staggering riches and unspeakable misery…a hell of a read.” -Opera Daily
“A genre-bending, time-consuming story about New York City’s elite in the 1920s and the Great Depression.” – Vanity Fair exhibition
“A fascinating story of class, capitalism and greed.” – Ask
“Exciting.” – New York Times
Even in the roaring 1920s, everyone in New York has heard of Benjamin and Helen Rusk. He is a legendary Wall Street financier. She is the daughter of eccentric nobles. Together they have risen to the top of a world of seemingly endless wealth – all as a decade of excess and speculation comes to an end. But at what cost have they acquired their great wealth? This mystery is at the center of Bonds, a 1937 hit novel that seems to have been read by all of New York. However, there are other versions of this story of privilege and deception.
Hernán Díaz’s confidence in beauty places these competing narratives in dialogue with each other—and in tension with the perspective of a woman who tends to separate fact from fiction. The result is a novel that spans more than a century and grows more exciting with each new revelation.
An immersive story and a brilliant literary puzzle, TRUST engages the reader in a search for truth while confronting the deceptions that often live at the heart of personal relationships, the reality-distorting power of capital, and the ease with which power can manipulate facts.
