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 his 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 the underworld of art. 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, and the ruthless machinations of fate.
戴克今年十三岁,来自纽约。他在一场险象环生的意外中神秘逃生,但却永远失去了母亲,后来又被父亲抛弃,被一个富有的家庭收养。新的生活环境使他感觉不知所措,学校里的新同学们并不能使他敞开心扉,他日夜思念母亲,只能诉诸于母亲留下的一副神秘而令人神往的画作。这副画作最终将他引向了艺术的世界。长大之后,他过上了两点一线的生活,每天来往于画室跟工作的古玩店之间。他越发孤僻,将自己封闭在那个狭小又危险的圈子里。
《金翅雀》讲述了一个引人入胜的故事,让人爱不释手,刻骨铭心。它讲述了迷失与妄想、生存与自创,以及命运的无常。
