An audacious, darkly glittering novel about art, fame, and ambition set in the eerie days of a civilization's collapse. A Hollywood star, a struggling actor, a paparazzo, and a nomadic band of Shakespearean actors traverse a post-pandemic landscape, connected by a mysterious comic book called Station Eleven.
Theo Decker, a 13-year-old New Yorker, miraculously survives a terrorist bombing at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In the aftermath, he clings to a small, priceless painting — Carel Fabritius's "The Goldfinch." As he grows up, the painting becomes both his burden and his salvation, pulling him into the criminal underworld of art.
