Events › Adult Book Discussion: Trust by Hernan Diaz

Even through the roar and effervescence of the 1920's, 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 the 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 wealth? 

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.
