Read by a full cast of narrators, Trust by Hernan Diaz is a sweeping, unpredictable novel about power, wealth and truth, set against the backdrop of turbulent 1920s New York. Perfect for fans of Succession.
Can one person change the course of history?
A Wall Street tycoon takes a young woman as his wife. Together they rise to the top in an age of excess and speculation. But now a novelist is threatening to reveal the secrets behind their marriage, and this wealthy man’s story - of greed, love and betrayal - is about to slip from his grasp.
Composed of four competing versions of this deliciously deceptive tale, Trust brings us on a quest for truth while confronting the lies that often live buried in the human heart.
'One of the great puzzle-box novels, it’s the cleverest of conceits, wrapped up in a page-turner' – Telegraph
'Genius' – Lauren Groff, author of Matrix

Really astounding
The only contemporary novel I have read that stands up against classics. Incredibly intricate but the prose moves lightly.
It loops around like something from Borges might but has a natural flow that never feels weighed down. Exceptional on a line level but so complex in its structure that it is hypnotic. There's a deceptive simplicity that is peeled away again and again.
So impressive, really enjoyed it.

Behind Every Great Man...
This is an intriguing intellectual exercise of a novel. As Mildred said: 'the right notes without any sense of rhythm". This is perhaps a little harsh but I did enjoy the book more with my head than my heart. I loved the final section and if history is often written by the survivors I was really pleased to see Mildred's story emerge from the shadows.

Utterly brilliant
The four stories are so incredibly well done. Brilliant characters, changing view points, multidimensional. I was hooked from the very beginning

Ruined by the ending
After asking us to question the reality behind the stories we are told and the complexities of events and individuals, the ending suddenly reverts to cliché and transforms the subjects into 2 dimensional characters worthy of a bad comic book.

Multi layered fiction
A seemingly simple story that becomes more nuanced with each telling to provide the complexity due it’s subject

Slowly draws you in
Patience and then you slip into this world and these people and who Mildred is becomes a vital thing to discover?
Who was she? What was she? How did she die?
The truth of who someone is hidden beneath the opinions, weaknesses of others, the stories they prefer to tell.
Really very good and beautifully read by all the narrators.

Once into it, I really enjoyed this book
Tentative start influenced by some of the unenthusiastic reviews I had read but perceived and admit I sprinted through the second half. Excellent read (listen), all in all.

wasn't sure... then adoration
I started this and wasn't sure at all... then I was caught.
I've finished and am going straight to start again.
