When their experiment in living beyond conventional morality leads to the death of a classmate, the novel unfolds in two haunting halves: the events that led to the killing, and the guilt-ridden aftermath. Since its 1992 publication it has become an enduring campus-novel classic and psychological thriller, admired for its atmosphere and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Goldfinch opens with a devastating explosion that kills the mother of thirteen-year-old Theo Decker and leaves him clutching a small Dutch masterpiece amid the wreckage. Taken in first by a wealthy Manhattan family and later drawn into the shadowy world of antiques dealing and art theft, Theo carries the painting - and his grief - through adulthood. Awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the Andrew Carnegie Medal, this sweeping, cinematic novel explores loss, obsession, and the redemptive power of beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo acclaimed novels by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Donna Tartt in one set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new paperback editions, ideal for gifting or building a literary fiction collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich, character-driven storytelling for fans of dark academia and psychological suspense\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes The Goldfinch, winner of the Pulitzer Prize and Andrew Carnegie Medal for Fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat value way to own two of the most talked-about literary novels of recent decades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nDonna Tartt is an American novelist whose work has been translated into forty languages.
