	Ernest Bramah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ernest Bramah Smith (1868-1942) was a British author.
		Bramah also created "a China that never was" and set in it tales of an itinerant story teller named Kai Lung; these tales (often tales-within-tales) are marked by a dry irony and deliciously absurd parody of the formally polite Chinese mode of expression, as understood by westerners of the time.
		One modern writer who is often compared to Bramah is Barry Hughart.

	Violet Books: Ernest Bramah
		Ernest Bramah has come to be regarded as having been a reclusive author because he left behind such a limited record of his life.
		These timeless stories will always appeal to lovers of strangeness & fantasy, & the praises of Ernest Bramah will be sung until the day has arrived that humanity even at the fringes ceases to care one whit about books.
		To a degree these are cross-genre stories, incorporating aspects of the supernatural or weird tale, although, as Bramah himself outlines in his introduction to the second Carrados collection, most of the near-impossible "powers" of our blind detective's super-sensitivity have been exhibited by actual, if exceptional blind individuals of history.

		Also, as I'm sure you know, Bramah was considered a recluse, and not much is known of his life.
		Ernest Bramah married Maisie Barker, sister of Alan and aunt of John and Rosemary.
		I am working on Bramah with a go-ahead from the holder of the copyrights, and tried to get in touch with his wife's family some years ago, but had no success.

		Ernest Bramah Smith (1869-1942) wrote a number of Kai Lung stories and a number of stories about Max Carrados, the first blind detective.
		That Bramah never visited China, and that the China he conjures up is a romanticized and sentimentalized version of the real thing, is true but not particularly relevant, so effective is Bramah in casting his spell and creating the universe of Kai Lung.
		But Bramah has a keen grasp of human nature, and if his characters are usually two-dimensional they are at least characters rather than stereotypes.

		These stories are about a wandering storyteller, who gets into various jams and escapes with the aid of his silver tongue and an admiring coquette.
		This unworthy person, having perused the august Ernest Bramah's "MAX CARRADOS" stories alone (and which should be read and reprinted), found himself faced with a copy of one of the most august of august books.
		The story unwinds itself delicately, with highly polished language and a good grasp of the Chinese mythology, with a rich vein of subtle humour.
