The Goldfinch Tartt, Donna Published by London Little Brown 2013 First Ediiton

Excellent Pre-Owned Condition, On actual book there are some spots but overall pages and inside great first edition condition. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize A first edition, first printing published by Little Brown in 2013. A fine book in like unclipped wrapper. Becoming scarce. Spanning New York to Las Vegas to Amsterdam, The Goldfinch is a Dickensian bildungsroman centered on Theo Decker, who survives a terrorist bombing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art at age 13. Theo loses his mother and gains a painting, the 1654 Carel Fabritius masterpiece, The Goldfinch, which plays a significant role in everything that follows. The Goldfinch is compelling, mysterious, and addictive, but it's a flawed novel and raises many questions that bear revisiting. Why does Theo miss every opportunity to reveal his secret and relieve himself of the burden of the painting? How does the book best demonstrate the transience of life next to the immortality of the painting? Does life follow a pattern or is everything determined by luck? Smoke Free Home New to Poshmark?
