Aged thirteen, Theo Decker, son of a devoted mother and a reckless,largely absent father, survives an accident that otherwise tears hislife apart. Alone and rudderless in New York, he is taken in by thefamily of a wealthy friend. He is tormented by an unbearable longingfor his mother, and down the years clings to the thing that mostreminds him of her: a small, strangely captivating painting thatultimately draws him into the criminal underworld. As he grows up,Theo learns to glide between the drawing rooms of the rich and thedusty 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 adrama of enthralling power. Combining unforgettably vivid charactersand thrilling suspense, it is a beautiful, addictive triumph - asweeping story of loss and obsession, of survival and self-invention,of the deepest mysteries of love, identity and fate.
