Trust (Díaz)

Author: Hernán Díaz
Date: 2022
Genre: Metafiction
Country: USA

Set predominantly in New York City and focusing on the world of finance, the novel is a metafictional, fragmentary look at a secretive financier and his wife.

The book is composed of four fictional texts: a novel (Bonds), an incomplete autobiography (My Life), a completed memoir (A Memoir, Remembered), and a diary (Futures). While each book focuses on many of the same characters, the information included in each is often mutually exclusive, with it being left up to the reader to determine the truth.
