Description
At an elite New England college, a group of intelligent but eccentric students fall under the spell of their enigmatic classics professor and are drawn into an exclusive world of ancient ideals and intellectual intensity. As they begin to blur the lines between thought and action, their pursuit of beauty and truth leads them down a dark, morally complex path with irreversible consequences. Donna Tartt’s The Secret History is a masterfully written modern classic both gripping and refined, haunting and thought provoking.
