Professional Reviews
: Kaplan, James, Vanity Fair: "It is Donna Tartt's ability to make us believe, utterly, in all this--at the moment of sacred insanity, we are at one with the celebrants.

But it is human nature to think of mirrors and wires even at the moment of enchantment: Where did these people come from?"

Details: <P>The snow in the mountains was melting and Bunny had been dead for several weeks before we came to understand the gravity of our situation.</p><P>In this brilliant debut novel, Donna Tartt gives us a richly textured and hypnotic story of golden youth corrupted by its own moral arrogance.</p><P>Richard Papen had never been to New England before his nineteenth year.

And that was just the beginning ...</p>
