Trust: the dazzling twisty story of power, greed and love that begins in 1920s New York

Trust by Hernan Diaz is an ambitious novel about power, wealth and truth, shaped through four distinct voices that connect and collide. Set in turbulent 1920s New York, it centres on a Wall Street tycoon and the young woman he marries, tracing their ascent during an era marked by excess and speculation. As their standing grows, a novelist threatens to bring hidden aspects of their marriage into the open. At the same time, the tycoon’s own version of events begins to slip from his control. Built from four competing accounts of the same story, the narrative becomes a search for what is real, while acknowledging the lies that can remain buried in the human heart.
