A mystery of Winterthurn is written by Joyce Carol Oates in the year 1984. Joyce Carol Oates is one specially known for his gothic writing and novels. A prolific writer, Joyce Carol Oates has written novels, short stories and poems. Born into a rural and small, isolated with an autistic sister and an absent father, the young woman finds refuge in the literature and discovered very early writings of Faulkner, Dostoevsky, or the Bronte sisters. Social tensions, power, femininity, sexuality are themes that the author discusses and develops with pessimism and lucidity. With novels such as 'Them', 'The Gravedigger's Daughter' or 'Delicious rot', Oates portrays an uncompromising face of America, one of the 1960 and 1970 mainly. Thanks to a portrait of Marilyn Monroe, 'Blonde'; she knows her greatest success in 2000. Beyond the exploration of American myth is the question of identity that the writer seeks to unravel, she sees the Hollywood icon in the watermark portrait of her own mother died very earlier, a figure also found in the novel 'Mother disappeared'. (Oates, 90-120)

In this novel he writes about different angles in how far is a woman who loved to remind her fiancé, she fled? Leads far love? So what heights of cruelty, perversity, seduction?

This is basically the central theme of the Mysteries of Winterthurn. A the late nineteenth century, at Glen Mawr Manor, located in the city of Winterthurn east United States, saw the strange Kilgarvan family which consists of three girls Georgina, the eldest, called "The Blue Nun" and her two half-sisters that she is raising alone, the wise and studious Teresa and the lovely, whimsical and perverse Perdita. At dawn one day in May, the Blue Nun mysteriously goes to town to buy fifty pounds of quicklime. Shortly after, we will find the baby of her cousin Abigail, came a few days visiting slain near his mother's bed. The truth about this horrific murder, he would have earned better, no doubt, do not years later, five young girls were found dead, horribly mutilated, nearly Winterthurn. And, twelve years after, the pastor, his mother and one of his parishioners who were savagely murdered with an ax. Each time, the key to these dreadful mysteries will be the same, although we guess how far a woman dares to go love? Joyce Carol Oates described as someone knows what is darkest at the bottom of things. She also knows how to touch our imagination in its shadows over the secret. This rigid society at the turn of the century, she denounces inexorably taboos and mysteries interdicts. (Oates, 200-400)
