Ply: a breathtaking, moving novel of America's future, from the winner of the Pulitzer Prize

"'These are the last moments of the world as it's always been known. Reality now begins anew.' The internationally bestselling, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Trust turns to America's future with Ply, an extraordinary thriller and novel of ideas. Centuries from now, an orphan adrift in an American city grows up to become a pincher. Stealing electricity from the grid to power the downtown music scene she adores is a risky occupation, and the city she moves through is dangerous. Someone is following her. Soon, the pincher is drawn into a paranoid maze where her closest friends and even her own identity are put into question - all while following a thread leading to an extraordinary scientific experiment that could change the fabric of reality itself. Set in a future filled with both uncertainty and promise, Ply is a deeply moving novel that interrogates the role of technology in a changed society. Combining Dickensian odyssey, family drama, and scientific thriller, Ply charts the tenuous boundaries of selfhood and the distance that inevitably stands between us and those we love.

[French] - Trust

"« New York enflait de l’optimisme tapageur de ceux qui croient avoir pris de vitesse le futur. » Wall Street traverse l’une des pires crises de son histoire. Nous sommes dans les années 1930, la Grande Dépression frappe l’Amérique de plein fouet. Un homme, néanmoins, a su faire fortune là où tous se sont effondrés. Héritier d’une famille d’industriels devenu magnat de la finance, il est l’époux aimant d’une fille d’aristocrates. Ils forment un couple que la haute société new-yorkaise rêve de côtoyer, mais préfèrent vivre à l’écart et se consacrer, lui à ses affaires, elle à sa maison et à ses oeuvres de bienfaisance. Tout semble si parfait chez les heureux du monde… Pourtant, le vernis s’écaille, et le lecteur est pris dans un jeu de piste. Et si cette illustre figure n’était qu’une fiction ? Et si derrière les légendes américaines se cachaient d’autres destinées plus sombres et plus mystérieuses ? Hernan Diaz est un écrivain américain qui vit à New York. Avec son premier roman, Au loin (La Croisée, 2018), il a été finaliste du prix Pulitzer puis lauréat du prix Page / America. À sa sortie, Trust a connu un immense succès, se classant dans la liste des meilleures ventes du New York Times. Traduit de l’anglais (États-Unis) par Nicolas Richard."

[German] - Treue (Ungekürzte Lesung)

"Hernan Diaz' vielschichtiger Roman dekonstruiert den amerikanischen Mythos von Männern, Macht und Reichtum und gipfelt in einer provokanten Geschichte der Emanzipation. Am Anfang steht das Geld. Und ein Mann, der es zu vermehren versteht wie kein Zweiter. In der schillernden New Yorker Finanzwelt der 20er-Jahre wächst Benjamin Rasks Vermögen ins Unermessliche. Aber erst seine Ehe mit der geheimnisvollen Helen gibt seinem Leben Sinn. Bald vibriert die ganze Stadt vor Gerüchten um das enigmatische Paar, und mit der Zeit beginnen die vielen Erzählungen die Wahrheit über die Eheleute zu verschleiern. Bis sich eine unerwartete Stimme in dem Gewirr Gehör verschafft. 'Treue' ist ein fulminantes Spiel mit dem Leser, eine vierteilige Matroschka, deren Kern den großen amerikanischen Mythos des Kapitals für immer verändert. Was als klassischer Roman über Macht und Männer beginnt, gipfelt in einer provokanten und hochmodernen Geschichte der Emanzipation."

Hernan Diaz (Author), Johann Von Bülow, Sabine Arnhold, Stephan Schad, Valery Tscheplanowa (Narrator)
