Acerca del autor

Ernest Bramah, born Ernest Bramah Smith in 1868, was an English author who made a significant impact on the literary world with his creation of the blind detective Max Carrados, who features prominently in a series of detective stories. In the collection 'Max Carrados' (1914), Bramah crafts a character whose blindness is ingeniously turned into an advantage in solving mysteries, engaging readers with deftly plotted narratives that rival the works of his contemporary, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Bramah's distinctive literary style often weaves intricate plots with a touch of dry wit and social commentary, reflecting attributes of the Edwardian era's society with a subtlety that is both insightful and understated. Beyond the Carrados saga, his oeuvre traverses various genres, including science fiction and fantasy, with titles like 'The Secret of the League' (1907), also known as 'What Might Have Been,' demonstrating his versatility and imaginative prowess. Bramah's enduring influence in detective fiction is marked by his innovative protagonist and his contributions to the genre's expansion. Although perhaps not as widely recognized as some of his peers, Bramah's work remains a testament to his skill as a storyteller and his ability to captivate an audience through the printed word.
