WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR FICTION

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES TOP TEN BOOKS OF 2022
ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVORITE BOOKS OF 2022
LONGLISTED FOR THE 2022 BOOKER PRIZE

“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.

Recommended. Such an intricate weaving. You will experience yourself pulled through each page.

Truth. No surprises

Jln345

This rambling novel isn’t finished?. Apparently the authors notes are still in the text. Examples: “More about Tommy,” and, “Give 2 example.” These notes are sprinkled into the text about 1/3 of the way through. I was somewhat exasperated with the fact that this novel doesn’t seem to go anywhere or have any clear direction, but the notes made me give up. I would like a refund, but don’t expect that will happen. Steer clear of this one.

Patches10011

Tedious. I was left underwhelmed.

Adsnoor

Average. Cliche that the main tycoon was a fraud and his wife was the tragic genius. Entertaining read about the gilded age nonetheless

Loring1

This is a keeper!. Every sentence worth reading twice!

Avbikales

Took too long to get there…. It’s a shame the most interesting part of the book is the last and (considerably) shortest section…

Sgjg1950

Trust. Boring, self-indulgent poppycock. Should have won the Pompous Prize.

Juliusa

Brilliant. Stick with this, because by the time you’re in the third section you’ll get this. A brilliant take on capitalism, the stories we tell about ourselves, and the society we live in and think we know. Worth all your time.

Pinkiemomma

Quite a journey. Loved parts. Slogged through others. Would like at least a partial refund of my time.

Sual Write

Wow. Masterpiece.

Michaela Bodmer

Implacable writing. Incredible writing. First two chapters will no reveal where this could go and you need a bit of patience but in the end so rewarding. So smart. That was such a pleasure.

Youcallmesomething

A great novel, memoir retold. Great read! The author is especially good in capturing the different voices in the story.

Cvl23

TRUST me and don’t bother. I read some good reviews and decided to read it. As I was reading, I assured myself that it would get better, just a little more. I read 90 pages to much. All I got out of it was a headache. It went nowhere and introduced several skeleton characters.

Swan S.

insightful moments. overall, lacked.. not life changing but worth a read. kinda wanted to just finished it at the end.

Garbofan

Not A Book I Enjoyed.. I read everyday… this book was quite boring. Finally threw in the towel at page 300. Even that was a stretch.

Woman from Malvia

Fascinating, complex and absorbing.. Excellent read.

Ciretsof

Inventive and fresh. Loved the construction of this novel as much as the characters and stories it contained.

Ila31

Stick with it!. As I read through Truth, I knew it promised something wonderful, even though its brilliance was slow coming. The differing versions of truth were intriguing, but I was truthfully blown away by the novel’s beautiful ending.

Chris in WMA

Exceptionally good book. This book is superbly written, with multiple voices. The characters are great and the story is compelling. And, it makes ya think.

Emily in MVCA

I’m not smart enough for this one. I was intrigued when reading the synopsis but tried to read it on a plane and had forgotten that it was a nesting novel with stories of stories so I lost the plot and the characters and the will to keep going. Perhaps I will pick it up in a few years when my mind is clearer. My summary is 5 stars for literary cleverness and writing, and 1 star for me personally, so I just put it down a third of the way through.

DMHDEHJAH

It did win the Pulitzer …. An adventurous novel, unlike any I’ve read before where three separate entities converge like, well, a novel. If you consider yourself a lover of the written word, a wordsmith yourself, or just looking to be challenged and rewarded, I would recommend this book.

Neon Fish Jenner

Trust. A fantastic book !

Tylo_5K

Potential not reached. I really feel like this book had potential to be great but, the stories seemed shallow. Additionally, I could not finish the book because of how frequent there seemed to be notes where the author intended to elaborate. I tried to keep reading but, half way through the book it became too aggravating.
