Biografía del autor

William Wilkie Collins (Londres, 1824-1889) fue, junto con Charles Dickens, uno de los escritores más populares de su tiempo. Su ingente obra literaria abarca el ensayo, el teatro y la narrativa. En esta última destacan los relatos cortos, de los que Navona ha publicado En mares helados, y sobre todo dos novelas consideradas clásicas: La piedra lunar, para muchos precursora de la moderna novela policíaca, y La mujer de blanco.
