VYNELA (หนังสือภาษาอังกฤษ) THE SECRET HISTORY — DONNA TARTT
FROM THE PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE GOLDFINCH
Truly deserving of the accolade Modern Classic Donna Tartts bestseller The Secret History is a remarkable achievement - both compelling and elegant dramatic and playful.

What we did was terrible but still I dont think any of us were bad exactly; chalk it up to weakness on my part hubris on Henrys too much Greek prose composition - whatever you like.
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 morality their lives are changed profoundly and for ever.
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.
