(December 14, 1916 – August 8, 1965)
Shirley Hardie Jackson was an American author known for her mystery and horror writing. She is the author of The Haunting of Hill House, We Have Always Lived in the Castle, and the short story ‘The Lottery’.
Shirley Jackson is a book author.
You can view all authors, or you can search by language/region, genre, era/movement, editor/translator, or year of edition.
The thing I love most about Jackson’s short stories is the way that she twists seemingly ordinary events into strange and unsettling directions. You won’t find ghouls and goblins here, but you will find human monsters and ominous atmospheres that leave the reader wondering how things went so wrong and why.
