Reviews

"A remarkably powerful novel [and] a ferociously well-paced entertainment.... Forceful, cerebral, and impeccably controlled." --The New York Times

"An accomplished psychological thriller .... Absolutely chilling .... Tartt has a stunning command of the lyrical." --The Village Voice

"Beautifully written, suspenseful from start to finish." --Vogue

"A huge, mesmerizing, galloping read, pleasurably devoured .... Gorgeously written, relentlessly erudite." --Vanity Fair

"Her writing bewitches us .... The Secret History is a wonderfully beguiling book, a journey backward to the fierce and heady friendships of our school days, when all of us believed in our power to conjure up divinity and to be forgiven any sin." --The Philadephia Inquirer

"A haunting, compelling, and brilliant piece of fiction .... Packed with literary allusion and told with a sophistication and texture that owes much more to the nineteenth century than to the twentieth." --The Times (London)
