ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Shirley Jackson

Shirley Jackson (1916–1965) é considerada uma das mais influentes escritoras norte-americanas. Herdeira da grande tradição do gótico americano, iniciada com Edgar Allan Poe, teve uma vida curta, deixando, porém, uma obra que a consolidou como uma das grandes personalidades literárias do século XX. Obteve imediato êxito e fama com a publicação, em 1948, do conto A Lotaria, que, à época, dividiu opiniões e suscitou acesas polémicas. Ao todo, escreveu cinquenta e cinco contos; e, da sua obra, destacam-se ainda as crónicas familiares Life Among the Savages e Raising Demons, bem como os romances The Sundial, A Maldição de Hill House, adaptado várias vezes para cinema e televisão, e Sempre Vivemos no Castelo, último livro da autora, publicado em 1962.
