About the Author/作者介绍: 玛格丽特•米勒 (Margaret Millar,1915—1994) 出生于加拿大安大略省,婚后移居美国,成为美国公民。高中时期开始写作,一九四一年出版第一部长篇小说,后因罹患眼疾而采用口述录音的方法创作。凭借《眼中的猎物》、《怪物的疆域》、《邪魔》三获爱伦•坡奖。曾任美国推理作家协会主席,一九八三年被该协会授予大师奖。一九八七年,《眼中的猎物》入选美国推理作家协会评选的“一百部最佳侦探小说”。
玛格丽特•米勒的作品具有极高的文学价值,文笔简洁而富有表现力,长于使用比喻,常常通过营造不安和恐怖气氛推动人物冲突和情节发展。她关注社会阶级差异、性自由问题和处于道德困境中的社会边缘人物,善于刻画孤独偏执的人性。在她的笔下,精神病人的幻想世界令人既毛骨悚然又心醉神迷。 她的丈夫肯尼思•米勒(笔名罗斯•麦克唐纳)也是一位杰出的作家。两人上高中时相识相恋。婚后,肯尼思在妻子的影响下开始创作侦探小说,成为硬汉派最重要的作家之一。同妻子一样,他也擅长运用心理暗示和比喻,同样三获爱伦•坡奖,并先于妻子获得大师奖。

Margaret Millar was born in Ontario, Canada and was educated at Kitchener Waterloo Collegiate Institute and the University of Toronto, majoring in classics. In 1938 she married Kenneth Millar (who wrote under the name Ross Macdonald). She published her first novel, The Invisible Worm, in 1941 and she worked as a screenwriter for Warner Brothers. She was active in the conservation movement in California in the 1960s and was named a Woman of the Year by the Los Angeles Times in 1965, and in 1982 she became a Grand Master of the Mystery Writers of America.
