"The Goldfinch's first 100 pages have a wonderful dreamlike quality, as the protagonist appears to drift from one horror to the next in an uncanny New York rocked by tragedy. I am a bit troubled by the disjunction between the child who is experiencing all of these events, and the adult narrating the story, because while the adult rarely intervenes the sophistication of the narration is all Theo many years later." — Apr 21, 2014 09:08AM
