Donna Tartt is an American writer who received critical acclaim for her first two novels, The Secret History and The Little Friend, which have been translated into thirty languages. Tartt was the 2003 winner of the WH Smith Literary Award for The Little Friend. Her novel The Goldfinch won the Pulitzer Prize in 2014.
The daughter of Don and Taylor Tartt, she was born in Greenwood, Mississippi but raised 32 miles away in Grenada, Mississippi. At age five, she wrote her first poem, and she first saw publication in a Mississippi literary review at age 13.
Enrolling in the University of Mississippi in 1981, she pledged to the sorority Kappa Kappa Gamma. Her writing caught the attention of Willie Morris while she was a freshman. Following a recommendation from Morris, Barry Hannah, then an Ole Miss Writer-in-Residence, admitted Tartt into his graduate short story course where, stated Hannah, she ranked higher than the graduate students. Following the suggestion of Morris and others, she transferred to Bennington College in 1982, where she was friends with fellow students Bret Easton Ellis, Jill Eisenstadt, and Jonathan Lethem. At Bennington she studied classics with Claude Fredericks.
She divides her time between Virginia and New York City.

唐娜·塔特斩获普利策奖时,人们说这是普利策奖首次颁给畅销书。畅销未必不经典,端看塔特平均十年才完成一部作品的节奏,便知她确为作品下了苦功。三部作品,一部令她一鸣惊人,一部巩固实力派的地位,一部斩获大奖。同样讲成长,展现了截然不同的侧面,毫无雷同,且令人惊艳...
评分文/夏丽柠 在美国文学界,女作家唐娜.塔特像神一样地存在。 唐娜生于1963年,现年53岁。可她出道二十多年,只完成了三部小说:《校园秘史》、《小友》和《金翅雀》。本本都近乎于十年磨一剑。且不说,每本小说都是扬扬洒洒几十万字的大部头。最关键的是,每本书出版的时候,...
评分 评分16年底,在北京的雾霾天里,笔者读完了这本小说。当时是因为据说这本书影响了很多的美国青年,好奇心驱使,便偷得浮生半日闲读完了原版。 故事太吸引人,但暂时还不讲故事。就想分享一下,介绍怎样才能不辜负一本让人废寝忘食的好书作为教科书的作用 (以下内容最初发表于笔者...

Truly deserving of the accolade a modern classic, Donna Tartt’s novel is a remarkable achievement—both compelling and elegant, dramatic and playful.
Under the influence of their charismatic classics professor, a group of clever, eccentric misfits at an elite New England college discover a way of thinking and living that is a world away from the humdrum existence of their contemporaries. But when they go beyond the boundaries of normal morality their lives are changed profoundly and forever, and they discover how hard it can be to truly live and how easy it is to kill.
动人心魄。
评分I was disappointed after reading this 500-page novel. A good novel, in my view, needs to contain vivid images that the readers can actually “see”, or to delve into the most intricate parts of human heart that the reader can actually “feel”. But this novel failed to achieve both of them.
评分读起来觉得相当繁复,然而故事却缓缓展开,虽然早已知道了结局,却要不停探究原由。那些扭曲的,不洁的,罪恶的,神秘的,隐藏在黑纱之下。
评分heartbroken. 感覺她的書都很film/tv/stage...script-ready 這本尤其適合被拍成電視劇
评分学术女冷艳高贵的调调啊,最喜欢了。我看过最好的coming-of-age小说。
