The Wallet of Kai Lung (Esprios Classics) Paperback / softback
by Ernest Bramah
Paperback / softback
Description
Ernest Bramah (1868-1942) was an English author of considerable repute in his day.
In total Bramah published 21 books and numerous short stories and features.
His humorous works were ranked with Jerome K Jerome, and W.
W. Jacobs; his detective stories with Conan Doyle; his politico-science fiction with H.
G. Wells and his supernatural stories with Algernon Blackwood.
George Orwell acknowledged that Bramah's book What Might Have Been (1907) influenced his seminal Nineteen Eighty-Four (1948).
Bramah, the creator of the immortal Kai Lung and Max Carrados, was a recluse who refused to allow his public even the slightest glimpse of his private life - secrecy perhaps only matched by E.
W. Hornung, the creator of Raffles, and today, J. D. Salinger.
