Thrilling + intelligent! One of the best I've ever read!,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Secret History (Taschenbuch)
Donna Tartt's first (and only) novel is, in my humble opinion, one of the most exciting books of the 20th century! It's one of those rare books that is both, intelligent and thrilling! I had to read it in one go, getting hardly any sleep during those days, yet always hoping that it wouldn't be finished too soon! Set in an New England élite college, 'The Secret History' manages to introduce the reader to the world of ancient Greek mysticismon the basis of a modern-day murder mystery.Ms. Tartt's writing is so elegant and powerful, yet so thrilling it takes your breath away.I bought this book shortly after its initial release in 1992 almost by accident: I was waiting for a plane in Frankfurt airport and decided to buy a book in the airport bookstore. Somehow the cover of 'The Secret History' caught my interest. And what a surprise... Since then, I have read this book 3 times and it never failed to thrill and enthrall me, time and again.Highly recommended, a definite must-read !!Matthias Gumz - Berlin, Germany

Going the wrong way,
Von andante "peter_berlin" (Cologne, Germany) - Alle meine Rezensionen ansehen
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Secret History (Taschenbuch)
The book is exceptionally well written and has an interesting plot with remarkable characters that keep your interest to the very end. It is told in the first-person perspective by a young college student from a a humble background who becomes a member of a clique whose members are from a a better social class, well, at least some of them. Their privileged background doesnt really help their characters and morals, so very soon a murder occurs which needs to be covered up. The reader learns early on about the murderers so the tension lies, among other things, when the murderers will be discovered. Nothing is, however, that easy or even what it seems. The author keeps you guessing till the end, but then the novel is more about the moral depths in all of us than a simple tale of murder and cruelty. Very recommendable.

Witty, cruel, entertainment!!!,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Secret History (Taschenbuch)
One of the most fascinating books I' ve ever read. Sometimes it's cruel, then, in a way it's really funny. A mixture of a teenager story and a deep view inside human being. You need a long breath but it's really worthy.It's entertainment and a really good story. Helfen Sie anderen Kunden bei der Suche nach den hilfreichsten Rezensionen
