- Summary:
- Part ghost story, part haunting fable inspired by Jewish mysticism and folklore, "The Golems of Gotham" tells the story of Oliver Levin, a bestselling gothic mystery writer and his teenage daughter, Ariel, who suddenly emerges as a precocious klezmer violinist and amateur kabbalist. A wildly imaginative exploration of how the Holocaust became part of society's shared consciousness, and what will happen once it retreats from the center of collective memory.
