Opis

A young boy in New York City, Theo Decker, miraculously survives an explosion that takes the life of his mother. Alone and determined to avoid being taken in by the city as an orphan, Theo scrambles between nights in friends' apartments and on the city streets. He becomes entranced by the one thing that reminds him of his mother: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that soon draws Theo into the art underworld. Composed with the skills of a master, The Goldfinch is a haunted odyssey through present-day America. It is a story of loss and obsession, survival and self-invention, and the enormous power of art.

ok so depressing and long? the ending was good and wouldve made up for like a 400 page one not 800 pages. very philosophical and appreciative of art but lots of discussion around drugs and alcholol abuse

wow i dont even know where to begin ive said it before and ill say it again donna tartt is a brilliant genius i knew this book was going to be good before i read it but nothing could’ve prepared me for that. i felt like i personally knew every single character and even with it being from theo’s point of view you just knew exactly what every character was feeling (apart from boris my man was all over the show). i was quite nervous about the length of this book but every page i read just had me more and more excited to see what came next after the first couple pages i truly was on the edge of seat for the entire book and i just know this book will be in the back of my mind for a long long time. think i need to shuffle my favourite books around because this easily top 3 for me !!
