著者について

『サイレント・パレード』の著者について

アレックス・マイクリーディス(Alex Michaelides)は、人里離れたギリシャの島を舞台に、執着、裏切り、そして殺人を描いた傑作サイコスリラー『静かなる復讐者(原題:The Fury)』で知られる国際的なベストセラー作家です。キプロスで生まれ育ったマイクリーディスは、ケンブリッジ大学トリニティ・カレッジで英文学の修士号を、ロサンゼルスのアメリカン・フィルム・インスティチュートで脚本の修士号を取得しました。

3年間にわたる心理療法の研究と、閉鎖精神病棟での2年間の勤務経験が、心理的操作や暗い欲望の探求に本物の深みを与えています。

マイクリーディスは『サイコセラピスト(原題:The Silent Patient)』で文学界に鮮烈なデビューを飾り、同作はニューヨーク・タイムズのベストセラーリストで初登場1位を記録、世界51カ国で650万部以上を売り上げるという記録的なヒットとなりました。第2作『ウィッカー・マンの乙女たち(原題:The Maidens)』も、発売直後からベストセラーとなりました。

ギリシャ神話やアガサ・クリスティのクローズド・サークル・ミステリーからインスピレーションを得て、マイクリーディスは真実とアイデンティティに対する読者の認識を揺さぶる、緻密なサイコスリラーを構築しています。『サイコセラピスト』は、『ディパーテッド』や『ムーンライト』を手がけたオスカー受賞プロデューサー陣によるプランB(Plan B)での映画化が決定しています。
