Gordana
povijesni roman
Ovo Zagorkino najopsežnije djelo, u 12 svezaka, govori o godinama vladavine hrvatsko-ugarskoga kralja Matije Korvina, njegovoj smrti, borbi udovice Beatrice od Napulja i nezakonitog sina Ivana za prijestolje krajem 15. stoljeća. Glavna junakinja Gordana Brezovačka razapeta je između svete dužnosti prema domovini i osobnih osjećaja te je tako upletena u niz spletki oko naslijeđa i stranih političkih interesa. U lijepoj i odvažnoj Gordani odražavaju se običaji epohe, povijesna zbivanja, konfrontiraju želje i nade pobjednika i pobijeđenih.
