This is a work-in-progress attempt, possibly an eccentric one, at a comprehensive list of “Catholic” novels, short story collections, plays, and film scripts in the English language. The list contains works in every genre and of widely varying quality, from literary fiction to sci-fi, from masterpieces to potboilers. Not a few are either not by Catholics or even Christians, or have no obviously Catholic theme, so the curious reader might wish to consult my Notes on Criteria for inclusion on the list. I am always open to suggestions for additions (contact me),

The list is organized alphabetically according to Author. The titles are frequently hyperlinked to Amazon or Powells, if the title is currently available. The “review” links in parentheses next to some of the titles lead back to reviews on Catholicfiction.net and other related sites. We have also included, wherever possible, links to movie adaptations of the novels.
