As my research on Asian Gothic is an ongoing project, this bibliographic section is pretty much a continuous work in progress with new items being added all the time. The list is by no means definitive and should not be treated as such. Since the list is not very long at the moment, I have decided to keep it as it is, but it is my intention to reorganise it into sections, similarly to filmography.

At the same time, I am planning to include short descriptions of all the novels on this list, which will be accessible through a separate menu on the right (coming soon).
