Overview

Notes From Your Bookseller El escritor argentino Hernán Díaz ha sido galardonado con el premio Pulitzer por esta extraordinaria novela. Narra la vida del magnate Benjamin Rask y de su esposa Helen, quienes han amasado una inmensa fortuna en Nueva York en la década de 1920. Sus excentricidades ponen en entredicho su éxito financiero. Argentinean writer Hernan Diaz has been awarded the Pulitzer Prize for this extraordinary novel. It chronicles the life of tycoon Benjamin Rask and his wife Helen, who have amassed an immense fortune in New York in the 1920s. Their eccentricities call their financial success into question. En los triunfales años veinte, Benjamin Rask y su esposa Helen dominan Nueva York: él, un magnate financiero que ha amasado una fortuna; ella, la hija de unos excéntricos aristócratas. Pero a medida que la década se acerca a su fin, y sus excesos revelan un lado oscuro, a los Rask empiezan a rodearlos las sospechas… Ese es el punto de partida de Obligaciones, una exitosa novela de 1937 que todo Nueva York parece haber leído y que cuenta una historia que puede, sin embargo, contarse de algunas otras formas. Hernán Díaz compone en Fortuna un magistral puzle literario: una suma de voces, de versiones confrontadas que se complementan, se matizan y se contradicen, y, al hacerlo, ponen al lector ante las fronteras y los límites entre la realidad y la ficción, entre la verdad –acaso imposible de encontrar– y su versión manipulada. 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 daughter of eccentric aristocrats. Together, they have risen to the very top of a world of seemingly endless wealth—all as a decade of excess and speculation draws to an end. But at what cost have they acquired their immense fortune? This is the mystery at the center of Bonds, a successful 1937 novel that all of New York seems to have read. Yet there are other versions of this tale of privilege and deceit. Hernan Diaz’s TRUST elegantly puts these competing narratives into conversation with one another—and in tension with the perspective of one woman bent on disentangling fact from fiction. The result is a novel that spans over a century and becomes more exhilarating with each new revelation. At once an immersive story and a brilliant literary puzzle, TRUST engages the reader in a quest for the truth while confronting the deceptions that often live at the heart of personal relationships, the reality-warping force of capital, and the ease with which power can manipulate facts.
