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 novel that "connects with the heart as well as the mind" (Stephen King, New York Times Book Review), named a New York Times Best Book of the 21st Century.


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).

Having seen the title everywhere, I was eager to read this book. Although it kept me interested, I felt the story was a bit lacking, I kept waiting for some climax but nothing really. Overall I’m glad I read it.

Interesting but no compelling

I loved this so much I listened to it twice back to back. The narration is incredible. The story is heart wrenching but wonderful. I had to listen to the very end a couple times to really absorb the depth of what the author was saying. I love this book and it will forever be a favourite.

One of my forever favourites

An absolutely amazing novel. There were several points where I got so caught up in the story, I realized I was embodying the protagonist’s anxiety. Supremely well-written; beautifully described.
