:: Good Books: The Goldfinch

November 18, 2013

Okay. I admit it. I haven’t even read the whole thing, but I LOVE THIS BOOK (so far!)  Written by Donna Tartt, it’s very heavy. Because it’s 771 pages long. Jeez. I am GLAD it is 771 pages long. I do not want it to end.

I heard about this book the other day. I got up really early, just before 5 and flipped on the telly. There was an American news program on and they were screening an (apparently rare) interview with Ms Tartt. So glad I did get up early. I might have let this book pass me by if I hadn’t.

The story is told by Theo Decker, a 13 year old boy living in New York with his mother. I can’t really say much more than that because you really need it to unfold for yourself. I don’t want to spoil it for you.  What I do want is for you to get this book. I think you will love it. Yep!

Donna Tartt writes a book EVERY TEN YEARS. One a decade! I think if someone works so long and hard it’s important to support all those late nights and deleted paragraphs and squabbles with Editors! Go get this book.
