WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE IN FICTION, a NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, and recognized as one of the TOP TEN BOOKS OF 2022 by various prestigious outlets, this novel presents a captivating exploration of money, power, intimacy, and perception. Set against the backdrop of New York City's elite during the roaring '20s and the Great Depression, it follows the lives of Benjamin and Helen Rask, a Wall Street tycoon and the daughter of eccentric aristocrats, who have achieved immense wealth amidst a decade of excess. However, the cost of their fortune raises questions that lie at the heart of the narrative. The story unfolds through competing narratives, including a successful 1937 novel that all of New York seems to have read, and the perspective of a woman determined to separate fact from fiction. Hernan Diaz's work intricately weaves these perspectives together, creating a literary puzzle that spans over a century. As the plot progresses, readers are drawn into a quest for truth, confronting the deceptions inherent in personal relationships, the distorting influence of wealth, and the manipulation of facts by those in power. The result is an exhilarating and immersive experience that challenges perceptions and invites reflection on the nature of truth and narrative.
