Specification
Pulitzer Prize-winning author Donna Tartt's novel, which took over 10 years to write, is a vast, epic tale about the power of art and how it—sometimes in ways we don't expect—can change our entire lives.

Abandoned by his father, without a single soul in the world, he wanders through foster homes and strangers' homes—from New York to Las Vegas—and his only solace, which nearly leads to his death, is a masterpiece by a Dutch Old Master he stole from a museum.
