The Secret History by Donna TarttRead about the other entries on the list.
When Donna Tartt wrote The Secret History in 1992, she had no idea she was writing a book that would one day be considered the blueprint of dark academia. The compelling premise centers around a group of six students studying at a New England university under a charismatic professor, Julian Morrow. Their studies in Greek lead them to discover a new way of thinking and living—one that’s far away from their everyday life. As morals slip, obsession leads to betrayals and, ultimately, murder.
