They are often referred to as 'family sagas' or 'generational chronicles'.
Multigenerational novels are sometimes known as 'dynastic novels'. They focus on the history and development of a family or group of related characters across several generations, revealing how their lives and experiences are interconnected.
A really good multigenerational novel is 'East of Eden' by John Steinbeck. It tells the story of two families over several generations, with themes of good vs. evil, family relationships, and the inheritance of traits. 'War and Peace' by Leo Tolstoy is also among the best. It not only shows the impact of war on different generations but also the complex family and social dynamics within Russian society during that time. And 'The Joy Luck Club' by Amy Tan is a great multigenerational novel that explores the relationships between Chinese - American mothers and daughters, spanning across different generations and cultures.
The key elements often include different generations of characters. Each generation represents a different era, so their values, beliefs, and ways of life can show the historical changes. Family relationships also play a big role, like how family traditions are passed down or broken over time. Another element is the historical setting which shapes the characters' fates.
Sure. 'The Little House on the Prairie' series by Laura Ingalls Wilder is a great choice for beginners. It follows the Ingalls family through different generations and gives a vivid picture of pioneer life. Another good one is 'Anne of Green Gables' series. Although it mainly focuses on Anne, it also shows the relationships and the passage of time within the family and the community across generations. 'The Secret Garden' also has elements of multigenerational change as it shows the transformation of the characters and the place over time, which is easy for beginners to understand.
There are quite a few. 'Middlemarch' by George Eliot is a classic. It portrays the lives of different characters from various social classes in a provincial town, and these characters' stories are passed down through generations. 'The Pillars of the Earth' by Ken Follett is another. It shows the building of a cathedral over generations and the lives of the people involved. 'The Name of the Rose' by Umberto Eco is also worth mentioning. It combines mystery with multigenerational elements in a medieval monastery setting.
