The Golem

The debut novel of the Austrian expressionist writer and representative of the "Prague School" Gustav Meyrink brought the author worldwide fame and earned a place among the greatest bestsellers of all time. Atmospheric, mystical, filled with meanings and symbols, "The Golem" was published in record editions at the beginning of the last century and is still read in one breath a hundred years later. You will find yourself in the dimly lit streets of Prague illuminated by gas lamps, where random passersby remember the legend of the clay figure brought to life by ancient magic. It is said that it was seen again in these parts on a damp misty night, and then the sounds of music coming from the tavern on the corner drowned out someone's death scream. And then dream and reality intertwine, forgotten — never existed? — memories resurface, love is born in the heart simultaneously with horror, and the ground slips from beneath your feet, revealing a black abyss of a secret passage into a room without doors.
