Gothic Saga by Joyce Carol Oates

The Gothic Saga is a series of gothic novels by American author Joyce Carol Oates. The books are very complex and build slowly throughout and don’t reveal the final piece of the puzzle until the books near their conclusions. Although published years apart, Oates wrote all of the novels in the early 80s.

Joyce Carol Oates began her Gothic Saga in 1980 with the novel Bellefleur. The series lasted four novels and a short story collection, concluding in 2013 with The Accursed. Below is a list of Joyce Carol Oates’ Gothic Saga books in order of when they were first published:
