Özet
An explosive novel about a girl in upstate New York in the late 1980s and the power she takes back from those who underestimate her—a shocking, psychologically suspenseful story of family, class, and revenge by a novelist Gillian Flynn calls "one of the greatest writers among us today."

"Orphan is superb. This is Joyce Carol Oates at the top of her craft, once again confirming her place as one of the greatest writers of our time. Nelia's story is devastating, but also hopeful -- a deeply moving testament to the human spirit and our capacity to love. I will never forget this book."
—Belle Burden, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Strangers

"[Orphan is] compulsively readable with a masterfully played ending. Oates is our Balzac, our Dickens, she’s a legend and there will never be anyone like her again.”
—Janet Fitch, #1 New York Times bestselling author of White Oleander


When a young girl’s life is disrupted by events she struggles to understand—the siege of her family’s house by law enforcement officers, the arrest of her father, and the breakup of her family—she becomes an “orphan” haunted by the mystery of what she has lost.

Living with relatives, under the spell of an older, precocious girl cousin, Nelia begins to adjust to altered circumstances; then, reunited with her mother, she finds herself in a new, nightmare “family” from which she is desperate to escape by any means.

A tale written in the register of the American gothic, as mesmerizing as a Grimm fairy tale, Orphan is a compulsively readable, disturbing but ultimately cathartic novel by “a genius in the truest sense of the word" (Rebecca Makkai) who never ceases to enthrall readers with her intimately observed characters and visionary storytelling.

“Orphan is classic Joyce Carol Oates—colliding fates in a rust belt town in upstate New York, an outlaw family of volatile men and unreliable women rich with secrets, and an isolated young girl struggling to understand what has happened to them all. It’s compulsively readable, with a masterfully played ending. Oates is our Balzac, our Dickens; she’s a legend and there will never be anyone like her again.”—Janet Fitch, bestselling author of White Oleander
