The goldfinch

Tartt, Donna. (Author).

Summary: A young boy in New York City, Theo Decker, miraculously survives an accident that takes the life of his mother. Alone and abandoned by his father, Theo is taken in by a friend's family and struggles to make sense of his new life. In the years that follow, he becomes entranced by one of the few things that reminds him of his mother: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that ultimately draws Theo into the art underworld. The Goldfinch is a haunted odyssey through present-day America, and a drama of acuity and power. It is a story of loss and obsession, survival and self-invention, and the enormous power of art.
