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

Reseñas de la Crítica

A sublime, richly layered novel. A story within a story within a story. (Roxane Gay, author of Bad Feminist)

Trust glints with wonder and knowledge and mystery. Its plotlines are as etched and surreal as Art Deco geometry, while inside that architecture are people who feel appallingly real. This novel is very classical and very original: Balzac would be proud, but so would Borges. (Rachel Kushner, Man Booker-shortlisted author of The Mars Room)

Immaculate. TRUST is a work of assured virtuosity, lightly-worn wisdom, and immense impact. (Kiran Millwood Hargrave, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Mercies)

That rare jewel of a book - jaw-dropping storytelling against the backdrop of beautiful writing. Amidst all the noise in the world, whole days found me curled up on the couch, lost inside Diaz’s brilliance (Jacqueline Woodson, author of Red at the Bone)

For all its elegant complexity and brilliant construction, Diaz's novel is compulsively readable . . . A captivating tour de force that will astound readers with its formal invention and contemporary relevance. (Booklist, starred review)

The audacity and scope of Hernan Diaz’s extraordinary novel - a prism, a mystery, a revelation - are brilliantly matched by the quality of his prose. (Jean Strouse, author of Morgan: American Financier)

This is now part of my collection of books that I must read more than once. Hernan Diaz keeps the reader engaged by playfully architecting individual and collective narratives of power, love and the meaning of financial success.

One of the great books of 2022

A very good and well written novel with an unexpected structure, asking one major question: what is the truth?

Excellent overall

Excellent in all respects. A revealing and artfully structured story about perception, myths and truth.

Wonderful, phenomenal and all in between

Extraordinary storytelling, intriguing storyline and fantastically executed narration. I was slightly put off by the reviews of the listeners who did not enjoy the book but honestly I have found the descriptions of people and places to be the most enjoyable. I loved each of the characters and the depths of their depiction. Highly recommend if you like a historical fiction with a twist.

Clever and at times brilliant

Clever and at times brilliant, a well written novel that explores voice, perspective, truth, and illusion.

Well written and captivating!

Loved the story and the writing. Interesting way to present the role that women played in finance where men are often portrayed as the poster children of financial ingenuity and success.

Dull and overly long

The first two sections are tedious - not helped by 3rd person narrative. The literary device they feed into is interesting, but couldn’t this have been done in a 70-page novella?
