Binding: Intact. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRooted in the rich folklore of Jewish Prague, Golem retells one of Central Europe's most enduring legends — the story of Rabbi Loew and the clay giant he breathed to life to protect the Jewish ghetto of the city. Eduard Petiška, one of Czechoslovakia's most celebrated authors of myth and legend, presents this timeless tale with atmospheric depth and lyrical prose that honours its mystical origins. The narrative chronicles the creation, deeds, and ultimate fate of the Golem, weaving together themes of faith, power, and the moral limits of human creation. Petiška's masterful retelling captures the shadowy, torch-lit streets of Renaissance Prague, making it as much a portrait of a vanished city as it is a tale of supernatural wonder. A landmark work in Czech literary tradition, Golem remains essential reading for lovers of mythology, historical legend, and dark, philosophical storytelling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887995367643,"sku":"2026200009377-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/ae761012-a526-4b59-8aa1-523d9ea6048e.png?v=1781751876","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009377-secondhand-golem","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
