Definition of a Coming of Age Novel. A coming of age story, also called a Bildungsroman, is all about the protagonist's journey from being a child to being an adult. It is a journey that takes a young person from naÃ¯ve to wise, from idealist to realist, and from immature to mature.
If the first half of the novel is a coming-of-age story, the second is the reckoning as Theo gets pulled into the shadowy underworld of forgery, art thieves, and organized crime. Near the end, âThe Goldfinchâ shifts into thriller territory, with a few attendant implausibilities.
