Finally read Donna Tartt’s The Secret History. Prose was lovely but it left me empty inside… something about the story feels so nihilistic and ultimately meaningless. Same feeling I got after reading A Little Life. Both are generation-defining novels but not sure how I feel about them.

Interesting comparison between the two. I enjoyed The Secret History (intentional Crime & Punishment vibes). I enjoyed A Little Life while I was reading it, and the language was beautiful, but the plot was pure torture porn. I nearly walked out of the theatre adaptation because it felt like absurdist caricature.
