\nBook Description:
\n"An unparalleled novel ab out money\, power\, intimacy\, and perception
\nEven through the roa r and effervescence of the 1920s\, everyone in New York has heard of Benja min and Helen Rask. He is a legendary Wall Street tycoon\; she is the daug hter of eccentric aristocrats. Together\, they have risen to the very top of a world of seemingly boundless wealth&mdash\;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 successfu l 1937 novel that all of New York seems to have read. Yet there are other versions of this tale of privilege and deceit.
\nHernan Diaz's TRUST elegantly puts these competing narratives into conversation with one anot her&mdash\;and in tension with the perspective of one woman bent on disent angling fact from fiction. The result is a novel that spans over a century and becomes more exhilarating with each new revelation.
\nAt once a n immersive story and a brilliant literary puzzle\, TRUST engages the read er in a quest for the truth while confronting the deceptions that often li ve at the heart of personal relationships\, the reality-warping force of c apital\, and the ease with which power can manipulate facts (Goodreads)."< /p>\nhttps://aurora.libnet.info/event/12528200 URL;VALUE=URI:https://aurora.libnet.info/event/12528200 ATTACH:https://static.libnet.info/images/events/aurora/trust.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
