Brandon Ying Kit Boey is a novelist, poet, and lawyer living in the State of Maine, United States of America.
His work has been described as literary and atmospheric, often drawing from Asian cosmology and lore. He grew up moving frequently, never staying in the same place for more than three years. Themes of time and space, and the malleability of both, feature prominently as he has described the attempt always “to build a bridge” that can seemingly never be, over an expanse that might otherwise never be crossed. His poems have been published in literary journals and anthologies, and he is also a writer of plays and short stories. Karma of the Sun is his first novel, and has received advanced praise from Booklist, Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, and Foreword Reviews, as well as The Wall Street Journal, which called the novel “poetically rendered” and a “perfect read for this moody season,” and Locus Magazine, which referred to the book as a “not-to-miss debut from a ridiculously talented newcomer.”
