Bob Brown byl plodný a nesmírně všestranný autor, který se věnoval žánrům od detektivek a poezie po kuchařky a filmové scénáře. Jeho raná práce pro pulpařské časopisy inspirovala první filmový seriál, zatímco jeho pozdější aktivity v Paříži zahrnovaly avantgardní literaturu a vizionářské nápady na „čtecí stroj“, který by digitalizoval text. Brown se zajímal o vizuální kulturu, publikoval poezii v předních avantgardních časopisech a s rodinou se podílel na populárních knihách o jídle a pití. Jeho rozsáhlé dílo a život rozprostřený po celém světě z něj činí fascinující postavu literární historie.
