À propos de cet audio

A young New Yorker grieving his mother's death is pulled into a gritty underworld of art and wealth in this "extraordinary" and beloved Pulitzer Prize winner from the author of The Secret History that "connects with the heart as well as the mind" (Stephen King, New York Times Book Review).

Theo Decker, a 13-year-old New Yorker, miraculously survives an accident that kills his mother. 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).

Ce que les critiques en disent

Narrator David Pittu accepts the task of turning this immense volume into an excellent listening experience. Pittu portrays 13-year-old orphan Theo Decker with compassion, portraying his growing maturity in this story of grief and suspense…Pittu adds pathos to his depiction of the troubled Theo as he deals with addiction and finds himself in a dance with gangsters and the art world's darker dealers. (AudioFile)

"Dazzling....[A] glorious, Dickensian novel, a novel that pulls together all Ms. Tartt's remarkable storytelling talents into a rapturous, symphonic whole and reminds the reader of the immersive, stay-up-all-night pleasures of reading." (New York Times)

"A long-awaited, elegant meditation on love, memory, and the haunting power of art....Eloquent and assured, with memorable characters....A standout-and well-worth the wait." (Kirkus, Starred Review)

Amazing and Moving

Contrary to other reviews, the deep descriptive narrative is precisely what is so great about this book. Thoroughly enjoyed!

Brilliant

Love stories that make you think about them continuously after you’ve finished them. This one did that, but I found it moved slowly...really slowly at times.

Great story but drags on a little.

Long and meaty. Characters flawed in ways that made me want to stop reading, but also clever, funny, and loveable enough to hold me: that's great writing. I will always be glad to have met Boris.

Much better than A Secret History

Narrator tried to do a different voice for every character (there are many), but would occasionally lose the voice in the middle of speaking.

As for the writing... I appreciate the effort to write every detail and thought for every action and every day, but it was a lot, and probably not all necessary. It wasn't stream of consciousness, but very close to. A long summer read, not a book for casual reading. Too long for a class to read and study.

More description than you would think to ask for
