Our November pick Trust revolves around the Rasks, a secretive couple, and their rise to power during the Great Depression. Told through linked narratives spanning over a century, what begins as a novel shifts into memoir and autobiography as we seek to untangle fact from fiction. I’ve never read anything quite like this one — and I hope you’ll join me in reading this month!
