Sull'autore

Sull'autore di La furia

Alex Michaelides è l'autore di bestseller internazionali di The Fury (La Furia), un magistrale thriller psicologico che esplora l'ossessione, il tradimento e l'omicidio su un'isola greca remota. Nato e cresciuto a Cipro, Michaelides ha conseguito un Master in Letteratura Inglese presso il Trinity College di Cambridge e un Master in Sceneggiatura presso l'American Film Institute di Los Angeles.

I suoi tre anni di studi in psicoterapia e i due anni di lavoro in un'unità psichiatrica di massima sicurezza conferiscono una profondità autentica alle sue esplorazioni sulla manipolazione psicologica e sui desideri oscuri.

Michaelides ha fatto irruzione sulla scena letteraria con Il paziente silenzioso, che ha debuttato al primo posto nella classifica dei bestseller del New York Times e ha venduto oltre 6,5 milioni di copie in tutto il mondo in un numero record di 51 paesi. Il suo secondo romanzo, Le vergini, è diventato un bestseller istantaneo.

Traendo ispirazione dalla mitologia greca e dai misteri a luogo chiuso di Agatha Christie, Michaelides modella intricati thriller psicologici che sfidano la percezione della verità e dell'identità dei lettori. I diritti cinematografici de Il paziente silenzioso sono stati acquisiti da Plan B, i produttori premi Oscar di The Departed e Moonlight.
