Donna Tartt ’s The Secret History is a story of two parts; the chain of events that led to the death of a classmate – and what happened next.
‘What we did was terrible, but still I don’t think any of us were bad, exactly; chalk it up to weakness on my part, hubris on Henry’s, too much Greek prose composition – whatever you like.’
