Tous les trentetrois ans le Golem, créature d'argile que certains rabbins doués de pouvoirs magiques savent transformer en sinistre automate, apparaît dans le ghetto de Prague afin d'y hanter ses habitants dans un but mystérieux. Lors d'une nuit tourmentée, le narrateur plonge dans un rêve qui va le faire vivre des événements qui se sont passés, il y a plus de trente ans, dans le vieux ghetto de Prague. Dans la peau d'un certain tailleur, Athanasius Pernath, il va errer dans le labyrinthe du ghetto, et va ainsi accéder à son propre passé... Le Golem est l'un des grands classiques de la littérature fantastique, l'un des chefsd'oeuvre de la littérature germanophone. Cet étrange roman, si mystérieux qu'on n'en devine pas toutes les richesses à la première lecture, marie la cabale et le folklore des ghettos, le fantastique et le policier, le psychologique et l'amour, alliant le rêve, la folie, les théories freudiennes, les fantômes, les brumes romantiques, les mystères égyptiens, la francmaçonnerie et l'occultisme...

First published in 1994 it is a welcome return for these classic stories in a 2-volume collection of Meyrink's short stories. "Meyrink's short stories epitomised the non-plus-ultra of all modern writing. Their magnificent colour, their spine-chilling and bizarre inventiveness, their aggression, their succinctness of style, their overwhelming originality of ideas, which is so evident in every sentence and phrase that there seem to be no lacunae." -- Max Brod"These tales - sc-fi, ghost-stories, gothic fables, oriental allegories - were written in the first decade of the century and are now translated for the first time. They make a magnificent introduction to his bizarre genius, which combined the sharp Bohemian scepticism of his contemporary Kafka with the mordant humour and outreach of Swift." -- Independent on Sunday

This collection contains short stories translated for the first time as well as stories featured in Dedalus anthologies. Together with volume 1 they comprise the most comprehensive collection of Meyrink short stories to appear in English. "Meyrink's short stories epitomised the non-plus-ultra of all modern writing.

En historie fra Prag fortæller, at Golem blev skabt af rabbi Löw som beskyttelse mod kristne forbrydere, der ville hænge jøderne i ghettoen op på et mord på et kristent barn. Figuren blev formet af ler, fik en seddel med en besværgelse anbragt under tungen, og blev manet til live af Löw og andre rabbinere. En Golem ses oftest som en menneskelignende statue, der er givet liv og bevægelighed. Den menes at få sin livskraft fra de hellige ord, der ridses i dens pande eller placeres på pergament i dens mund. Golem er altid stum.Myten om Golem danner baggrundstema for Gustav Meyrinks fantastisk-mystiske roman.
