CHI (V)-SIG City Book- "Trust" by Hernan Diaz
About this event
Come join the virtual discussion with the TTN city book club members!
Trust, by Hernan Diaz, won the 2022 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, the Kirkus Prize, and was one of the Washington Post's ten best books of the year.
"Set in the 1920s and 1930s in New York City, this is the story of (fictional) tycoon Andrew Bevel, a man who accomplished the most amazing financial feat: He beat the market just before October 1929, turning his stocks and bonds into cash weeks before the crash that led to the Great Depression. He spent his entire adult life beating the market, figuring out nuances and tricks to always come out on top—nuances and tricks that no one else could copy. But he is a cold, uncaring man who avoids society, has no real friends, and who is only made more human when he marries Mildred. This is not only a novel about Andrew Bevel's life and work, but also it's a novel about money—the ways it serves, benefits, and corrupts." Cathryn Conroy on Amazon
