Trust

by Hernan Diaz

Riverhead Books/PRH

    This is an amazing book, very much deserving of all the prizes it received. It is a historical novel composed of several different sections which put forth slightly different stories. In each story there is at least one character you come to care very much for, and many different meanings of the word - trust. 

    There is much here about the financial world, expertly delineated for even those of us who aren't experts in Wall Street, futures, the crash of '29 or investing in general. The characters are the essence, even when they are duplicitous or not even purposely vague.

  This is well worth your time.
