The article is devoted to the study of intertextuality in Donna Tartt's novel "The Secret History". The article examines the influence of Hellenistic culture on the work of the American writer Donna Tartt. In her works she actively uses the ancient code, introducing and deconstructing plots and elements of ancient Greek works. The perception of ancient culture is manifested through narration and intertextuality, which performs several functions in the novel: plot-forming, compositional and escapist.
