Donna Tartt on The Secret History The John Adams Institute
On March 14, 1993 American author Donna Tartt visited the John Adams Institute to speak about her bestselling novel The Secret History, which has been translated into 24 languages. Pieter Steinz moderated the evening. The Secret History takes places at a fictional college where a closeknit group of six students embark upon a secretive plan to stage a bacchanal, a plan that ultimately leads to a death. Since The Secret History, Tartt has written The Little Friend and The Goldfinch, the latter of which became a bestseller and Book of the Year by numerous publications including New York Times Book Review, the Economist and NPR. The Goldfinch also won the Pulitzer Prize. View our upcoming speakers on our website:
