À propos de cet audio
WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR FICTION
ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES’S 100 BEST BOOKS OF THE 21ST CENTURY
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
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.
Ce que les critiques en disent
“Intricate, cunning and consistently surprising…Much of the novel's pleasure derives from its unpredictabiility...Add Henry James to Wharton, and Thomas Mann too...Exhilarating and intelligent novel.”—New York Times
“Luminous… Masterful… The drama lies in trying to puzzle out where Diaz will take you next, what’s been hidden, and why.”—The New Yorker
“A rip-roaring, razor-sharp dissection of capitalism, class, greed, and the meaning of money itself that also manages to be a dazzling feat of storytelling on its own terms… Important and timely. But the uniquely brilliant way in which Diaz tells that story, as meticulously researched as it is narratively exhilarating, makes it a novel not just for the present age but for the ages.”—Vogue

Just okay
Not my favourite. The story was well told but not particularly interesting. Just like reading a mundane section of 3 diaries telling the same, mundane story.

Fantastic Mind-Bender of a Ride!
A book in 4-acts, and a delirious labyrinthian journey to the center of the “truth”, each story erases the previous one to reveal the full power of revisionist history and its economic spill. This book is a modern cautionary tale on the extent of what can happen, and the unintended consequences, when you outsmart technology just because you can.

Maneuvering in the stock market!
Too much flip flop in the time lines of characters. Hard to keep them straight.

Very unique
I enjoyed this book. I have an opportunity to attend a talk with the author (who is new to me), so I thought I’d introduce myself to his work.
I liked the different perspectives, especially the combination of book drafts and general narration. I thought it was rather clever. I will read more by this author.

Pretentious
Probably the least interesting of subjects; the woes of the ultra wealthy. Give me a break!

Painfully boring. Not entertaining, barely enlightening.
The Pulitzer judges got seduced by structure over content. While this structure is interesting, it is not apparent while reading this book. Afterwards, yes, it’s cute.
Lawrence Durrell wrote The Four Quartets using a similar approach to perspective. His books were more fun to read.
Fiction can simply entertain, or entertain and enlighten, but never just enlighten. That’s what this technical novel attempts.
I bought it based on the award and read it cautiously based on the ‘qualified’ reviews. ‘Hold on , it gets better.’ ‘The last book is the key, so please try and get there ‘
I should have known prize winners in Literature are often just different enough for bored judges to find refreshing.
As for the performances in the audiobook, desultory, monotones. I guess that goes along with the tone of the book itself. Not the actors’ faults.
Do not waste any of your valuable resources on this book.
