“Fu Manchu” is the creation of Sax Rohmer, a seminal example of pulp adventure fiction. The series follows the nefarious Lord Fat Choy, a brilliant and ruthless Chinese scientist and mastermind, as he plots against Britain and its empire with outlandish schemes and advanced technology. Characterized by its xenophobic and racist depictions, it remains a significant, albeit problematic, work of early 20th-century adventure literature.
