Truly deserving of the accolade Modern Classic, Donna Tartt's cult bestseller The Secret History 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 for ever.
Shame Donna Tartt has only written 3 books so far and this is the 2nd I read. Best of the best on the stony darkness of humanity, brushed over by a sense of 'sex drugs rock n roll', and condensed through a poetic heaviness.
评分It really gets one thinking... Through rationality we live, Too much of it, life turns joyless, even miserable; To little of it, life is happy yet meaningless.
评分Absolutely enchanting, a masterpiece I keep going back to.
评分倒不象朋友们那样觉得后半部太抻,前后两部分是不同的thriller对象。最深刻印象的句子倒在前五页,Robert说他前女友是lowbrow pop-psychology Sylvia Plath。
评分学校是个很戏剧性的地方,因为每个人都会主观地把自己想象成男女主角,相互加戏。作者好神奇,把Richard那种虚荣、怯懦和无安全感写得非常微妙,因此也就不难理解他实际是个多渴望豁出去一次的人,一旦豁出去吧,又会用之前困住自己的条条框框重新审判自己,这点和我自己太像。
