I read The Secret History after it was recommended by a friend. I could not put it down. Tarrt writes exquisitely and the plot and characters are fantastic...and yet, I hated the ending. It is one of the few books I've read where I disliked most of the characters.
"I also have to wonder if the sense of doom and inevitable fate that hangs over these words stems from Greene’s Catholicism, which infused so much of his work."
Perhaps that says more about your view of Catholicism?
