From an award-winning chronicler of our nation’s history and its legends comes his much-anticipated novel about wealth and talent, trust and intimacy, truth and perception.
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 brilliant daughter of eccentric aristocrats. Together, they have risen to the very top of a world of seemingly endless wealth. But the secrets around their affluence and grandeur excites gossip. Rumors about Benjamin’s financial maneuvers and Helen’s reclusiveness start to spread—all as a decade of excess and speculation draws to an end. At what cost have they acquired their immense fortune?
This is the mystery at the center of a successful 1938 novel entitled Bonds, which all of New York seems to have read. But it isn’t the only version.
Hernan Diaz’s Trust brilliantly puts the story of these characters into conversation with other accounts—and in tension with the life and perspective of a young woman bent on disentangling fact from fiction. The result is a novel that becomes more exhilarating and profound with each new layer and revelation. Provocative and propulsive, Trust engages the reader in a quest for the truth while confronting the reality-warping gravitational pull of money and how power often manipulates facts. An elegant, multifaceted epic that recovers the voices buried under the myths that justify our foundational inequality, Trust is a literary triumph with a beating heart and urgent stakes.

For about a decade now I have witnessed a woeful decline not only in the business of our country but also in the spirit of its people.Where perseverance and ingenuity once dwelled,apathy and despair now loiter. (查看原文)

A book of four books, a time of turbulence, a world to be jarred between two wars: one bloody blow had already sunk, another looming. But this is a different battlefield, where the Great Ship of finance rocked, and then wrecked, made mountains of money for ...

In search for truth. Love the structure & design. Plot a bit cliche

第一部分Bonds写得确实不错，有点Henry James的感觉。后面三个部分就比较一般了，特别讨厌Andrew Bevel妄自尊大的语气，Ida也远没有她爸来得有意思。最后的反转感觉也有点太政治正确了——伟大的女性数学家物理学家确实不少，但厉害的交易员好像真的没有女的？强行贴金就有点没意思了

一本结构远大于内容的小说。从内容的角度可以说是非常的无聊，但是作者通过四个人物的不同视角的讲述，使得故事充满了悬疑与反转，但是美中不足的是整体有些虎头蛇尾，对于女主的聪明才智的细节刻画不足，人物不够立体。虽以结构取胜，但是安排显得有些刻意，不过这种结构上巧思倒是让阅读不那么痛苦了。

最重要的情节花了最少的功夫。形式限制了展开？数学天才太太做空了那一年的市场带来了股灾，是写着写着突然想到的？普利策是不是正经的文学奖项啊？怎么这么头重脚轻，中间生插一段意大利左翼激进爸爸干什么呀？
