Ideal for discerning readers craving a slow-burning, immersive literary experience. ## Description Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction 2014Aged thirteen, Theo Decker, son of a devoted mother and a reckless, largely absent father, survives an accident that otherwise tears his life apart. Alone and rudderless in New York, he is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. He is tormented by an unbearable longing for his mother, and down the years clings to the thing that most reminds him of her: a small, strangely captivating painting that ultimately draws him into the criminal underworld. As he grows up, Theo learns to glide between the drawing rooms of the rich and the dusty antiques store where he works. He is alienated and in love - and his talisman, the painting, places him at the centre of a narrowing, ever more dangerous circle. The Goldfinch is a haunted odyssey through present-day America and a drama of enthralling power. Combining unforgettably vivid characters and thrilling suspense, it is a beautiful, addictive triumph - a sweeping story of loss and obsession, of survival and self-invention, of the deepest mysteries of love, identity and fate. Review: A must read as a reader. - It has a amazing story with engaging character and auther had made it long but it makes me keep going till end. Review: Enjoyed it - Imagine if Harry Potter wasn't introduced into the magical world. What would have happened with his life. Well, Theo's story gives an idea of how it would have been. I tell you this because the narrative style was so much similar to that of Harry's. That gloomy, self blaming, careless, over thinking, but at times smart of Harry Potter is what Theo is. The book is quite slow paced and I love those kind of books because of it's taking time to introduce us into the settings and it's characters. I loved Donna's writing style so much. She has written only the best part of all characters. And I would say Boris character was kind of interesting and that's what made the Las Vegas scenes lively. Most people didn't like the Las Vegas setting but tbh, I loved it. That was needed for explaining the friendship between Theo and Boris. But I felt that Donna gave some useless hope between those two characters in the end of that scene which was really disappointing. I expected more between them. And the another thing I was disappointed was the blurb at the back of the cover. This book isn't what they have mentioned in that. There is more to the story. This is a coming of age story, there are so many emotions, friendship and love. Because of that blurb I was keep on expecting more actions but there were nothing except some 20 pages in the last chapter. I would have still read this book if they have written a proper blurb. But overall, I enjoyed reading this book so much. ## Features - This product will be an excellent pick for you. - It is durable and long lasting - It ensures you get the best usage for a longer period ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #5,083 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #137 in Board Games #182 in Crime, Thriller & Mystery (Books) #320 in Contemporary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 out of 5 stars 125,657 Reviews | ## Images ![THE GOLDFINCH - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71ud9Tcj5YL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A must read as a reader. *by B***R on 2 June 2026* It has a amazing story with engaging character and auther had made it long but it makes me keep going till end. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Enjoyed it *by F***B on 18 October 2018* Imagine if Harry Potter wasn't introduced into the magical world.
