i think the biggest difference between babel and the secret history is the notion of telling versus showing.

richard tells us over and over again about the beauty of the hampden college campus, about the lovely days spent at francis’ house, about how beauty is terror, about the sense of belonging he found in his classics class. but the story explicitly shows us the reality is not what richard preaches. they killed their friend, they justified it in the name of hellenism, they were horrible to each other, they all lost their minds. there’s layers to the storytelling and an incongruous, inverse relationship between the true story and its teller.

babel is exceptionally well-researched and the story is as comforting as it is harrowing and its deffo a book society needs. but the story doesn’t actually show us anything that it doesn’t explicitly reiterate through its dialogue and actions again and again. robin thinks to himself that the british empire is evil (true) and then we immediately see an example of how the british empire is evil. the story spells itself out to the reader as history spells itself out to robin. it’s thematically exquisite but the narrative style is uninteresting.
