Secret History, The (HB) - 30th anniversary edition

From the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Goldfinch! - 'Everything, somehow, fit together; some sly and benevolent Providence was revealing itself by degrees and I felt myself trembling on the brink of a fabulous discovery, as though any morning it was all going to come together - my future, my past, the whole of my life - and I was going to sit up in bed like a thunderbolt and say oh! oh! oh!' Under the influence of a charismatic classics professor, a group of clever, eccentric misfits at a New England college discover a way of thought and life a world away from their banal contemporaries. But their search for the transcendent leads them down a dangerous path, beyond human constructs of morality. - The bestseller that defined an age, now in a beautiful 30th anniversary hardback edition, with quarter bind olive green cloth spine, silver foil, printed endpapers and a ribbon marker.
