硃迪·皮考特，美國當代著名暢銷書作傢，小說傢。1992年齣版第一部小說以來，十五部作品無一不持續暢銷，甚至每有新作，必迅速登上《紐約時報》、《華盛頓郵報》、亞馬遜網站等暢銷書榜首位。作品涉及的尖銳話題．也迅速在全美國甚至全球引發激烈爭議。

作傢總能以超凡的敏銳捕捉新銳題材安樂死、器官移植、青少年自殺、剋隆、乾細胞……這些人類至今莫衷一是的話題，常常成為她書寫的焦點，常常使她筆下的人物，既極具濃鬱的倫理爭議，又背負深重的悲涼宿命。難得的是，作傢並非討論“問題”，而以綿密細緻的小說筆法編織精彩絕倫的感人情節，以深情靈動的語言和齣人意料的轉閤，寫盡人間至情。

"New York Times" bestselling author Jodi Picoult is widely acclaimed for her keen insights into the hearts and minds of real people. Now she tells the emotionally riveting story of a family torn apart by conflicting needs and a passionate love that triumphs over human weakness.Anna is not sick, but she might as well be. By age thirteen, she has undergone countless surgeries, transfusions, and shots so that her older sister, Kate, can somehow fight the leukemia that has plagued her since childhood. The product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Kate -- a life and a role that she has never challenged...until now. Like most teenagers, Anna is beginning to question who she truly is. But unlike most teenagers, she has always been defined in terms of her sister -- and so Anna makes a decision that for most would be unthinkable, a decision that will tear her family apart and have perhaps fatal consequences for the sister she loves. "My Sister's Keeper" examines what it means to be a good parent, a good sister, a good person. Is it morally correct to do whatever it takes to save a child's life, even if that means infringing upon the rights of another? Is it worth trying to discover who you really are, if that quest makes you like yourself less? Should you follow your own heart, or let others lead you? Once again, in "My Sister's Keeper, " Jodi Picoult tackles a controversial real-life subject with grace, wisdom, and sensitivity.
