Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction 2014 Aged 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.

Product Description:
Al empezar El jilguero, entramos en una habitación de hotel en Amsterdam. Theo Decker lleva más de una semana encerrado entre estas cuatro paredes, fumando sin parar, bebiendo vodka y masticando miedo. Es un hombre joven, pero su historia es larga y ni él sabe bien por qué ha llegado hasta aquí.
¿Cómo empezó todo? Con una explosión en el Metropolitan Museum de Nueva York hace unos diez años y la imagen de un jilguero de plumas doradas, un cuadro espléndido del siglo xvii que desapareció entre el polvo y los cascotes. Quien se lo llevó fue el mismo Theo, un chiquillo entonces, que de pronto se quedó huérfano de madre y se dedicó a malgastar su vida, mientras el recuerdo de una niña pelirroja llenaba sus noches y un bulto sospechoso iba pasando de mano en mano hasta llegar a Holanda.
¿Cómo acabará todo? Para saberlo hay que dejarse llevar por el talento de Donna Tartt, la autora que ha conseguido poner al día las reglas de los grandes maestros, El jilguero es probablemente el primer clásico del siglo xxi.

Abandoned by his father, Theo is taken in by the family of a wealthy friend. Bewildered by his strange new home on Park Avenue, disturbed by schoolmates who don't know how to talk to him, and tormented above all by a longing for his mother, he clings to the one thing that reminds him of her: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that ultimately draws Theo into a wealthy and insular art community.As an adult, Theo moves silkily between the drawing rooms of the rich and the dusty labyrinth of an antiques store where he works. He is alienated and in love -- and at the center of a narrowing, ever more dangerous circle.The Goldfinch is a mesmerizing, stay-up-all-night and tell-all-your-friends triumph, an old-fashioned story of loss and obsession, survival and self-invention. From the streets of New York to the dark corners of the art underworld, this "soaring masterpiece" examines the devastating impact of grief and the ruthless machinations of fate (Ron Charles, Washington Post). Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780804173025
