" The Little Friend seems destined to become a special kind of classic. . . . It grips you like a fairy tale, but denies you the consoling assurance that it's all just make-believe." --The New York Times Book Review "At times humorous, at times heartbreaking, The Little Friend is most surprising when it is edge of the seat scary." -- USA Today "Harriet [is] one of the most engaging and rounded characters you are likely to find. . . . Tartt's writing: gorgeous, fluent, visual." -- The Times (London) "Languidly atmospheric . . . psychologically acute. . . . A rich novel that takes you somewhere worth going." -- The New Yorker "A terrific story. . . .

A sublime tale rich in religious overtones, moral ambiguities, and violent, poetic acts ... From its darkly enticing opening, we are held spellbound." -- Elle "A sprawling story of vengeance, told in a rich, controlled voice ... Tartt has written a grownup book that captures the dark, Lord of the Flies side of childhood and classic children's literature." -- Time, " The Little Friend seems destined to become a special kind of classic. . . .It grips you like a fairy tale, but denies you the consoling assurance that it's all just make-believe." --The New York Times Book Review "At times humorous, at times heartbreaking, The Little Friend is most surprising when it is edge of the seat scary." -- USA Today "Harriet [is] one of the most engaging and rounded characters you are likely to find...Tartt's writing: gorgeous, fluent, visual." -- The Times (London) "Languidly atmospheric... psychologically acute....

Synopsis
The second novel by Donna Tartt, bestselling author of The Goldfinch (winner of the 2014 Pulitzer Prize), The Little Friend is a grandly ambitious and utterly riveting novel of childhood, innocence and evil. The setting is Alexandria, Mississippi, where one Mother's Day a little boy named Robin Cleve Dufresnes was found hanging from a tree in his parents' yard. Twelve years later Robin's murder is still unsolved and his family remains devastated. So it is that Robin's sister Harriet--unnervingly bright, insufferably determined, and unduly influenced by the fiction of Kipling and Robert Louis Stevenson--sets out to unmask his killer. Aided only by her worshipful friend Hely, Harriet crosses her town's rigid lines of race and caste and burrows deep into her family's history of loss. Filled with hairpin turns of plot and "a bustling, ridiculous humanity worthy of Dickens" ( The New York Times Book Review ), The Little Friend is a work of myriad enchantments by a writer of prodigious talent., NATIONAL BESTSELLER * From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Goldfinch comes an utterly riveting novel set in Mississippi of childhood, innocence, and evil. * "Destined to become a special kind of classic." -- The New York Times Book Review The setting is Alexandria, Mississippi, where one Mother's Day a little boy named Robin Cleve Dufresnes was found hanging from a tree in his parents' yard.

- s***l (17)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat seller, good value. The book arrived ina timely manner although I didn't understand why usps shipping routed the order out of state and then back when I live in the same city. I guess that's how the routes are set up. Anyhow. Good packaging although some bubble would be appreciated, it came in good condition, as described and definitely a valuable purchase. Thank you & God Bless 🙌
- l***e (114)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufVery fast service and shipping. Packaged well and with care. Item better than described. Good communication and price. Will not hesitate to deal with again. Superb seller! AAAA+++
- c***r (562)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufMost importantly, the book condition was as specified. Many thanks for that. Also, the book was delivered promptly from the US to the UK. Also, the price was reasonable for an out-of-print book. However, one point of constructive criticism: the packaging could have been much better, in order to better protect the book in transit. The book was sent in a bubble-wrap mailer only. It would have benefited greatly from cardboard packaging. Thank you very much for any consideration of my feedback.Power: A Scientific Approach (Nr. 187431076956)
