More about the book
The character of Dr. Fu Manchu, a supervillain created by Sax Rohmer, emerged just before World War I and has captivated audiences for over 90 years across various media. Known as an archetype of the evil genius and mad scientist, Fu Manchu's influence extends to cultural symbols like the Fu Manchu moustache. Rohmer's inspiration reportedly came from a Ouija board session. Clive Bloom suggests that the character was modeled after the music hall magician Chung Ling Soo, who adopted a Mandarin persona, highlighting themes of cultural representation and exoticism.
