Autorenporträt
Ernest Bramah, born Ernest Brammah Smith on 20 March 1868, was an English author known for his sly and innovative literary contributions, especially in the detective and science fiction genres. Lesser-known than his contemporaries, such as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Bramah's work nonetheless offers a significant contribution to early 20th-century literature. His creation, Max Carrados, a blind detective, gained considerable popularity at the time through the collection 'The Adventures of Max Carrados' (1914), which showcased the character's extraordinary abilities to solve mysteries through heightened other senses — a concept well ahead of its time, and indicative of Bramah's inventive approach to the genre. Bramah's Carrados tales often highlight social issues of the era, flavored with a wry humor. Not limited to detective stories, Bramah's diverse body of work also includes 'The Wallet of Kai Lung' (1900), which introduced another of his famous characters, the itinerant storyteller Kai Lung. Bramah's literary style is marked by a distinctive blend of wit, narrative finesse, and a penchant for the out-of-the-ordinary, securing his place in the annals of classic British literature. Despite fluctuating levels of contemporary fame, his contribution has endured, influencing various authors and remaining a treasured part of early detective fiction. Bramah passed away on 27 June 1942, leaving behind a legacy of creativity and insight through his eclectic and enduring works.
