“Buzzy and enthralling . . . A glorious novel about empires and erasures, husbands and wives, staggering fortunes and unspeakable misery . . . Fun as hell to read.” —Oprah Daily
"A genre-bending, time-skipping story about New York City’s elite in the roaring ’20s and Great Depression." —Vanity Fair
“A riveting story of class, capitalism, and greed.” —Esquire
"Exhilarating.” —New York Times
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 Bonds, 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.
Hernan Diaz’s TRUST 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.
At once an immersive story and a brilliant literary puzzle, TRUST 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.]]>https://tccl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C6480334https://tccl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S980C6480334Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMThttps://tccl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/6480334980EBOOKenghttps://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593420331/MC.GIF&client=tulpl&type=xw12&oclc=Pulitzer Prize Finalist: "Something like Huckleberry Finn written by Cormac McCarthy: an adventure story as well as a meditation on the meaning of home."—The Times

A young Swedish immigrant finds himself penniless and alone in California. The boy travels East in search of his brother, from whom he was separated in the crowds and chaos during their journey across the sea. Moving on foot against the great current of emigrants pushing West, he is driven back again and again, meeting naturalists, criminals, religious fanatics, swindlers, Indians, and lawmen—and his exploits turn him into a legend.
Just as its hero pushes against the tide, this widely acclaimed novel defies genre conventions—and "upends the romance and mythology of America's Western experience and rugged individualism" (Star Tribune).

"Suspenseful...a memorable immigration narrative, and a canny reinvention of the old-school western."—Publishers Weekly
