Inhaltsangabe:
Mike Mitchell has revised his translation and a new introduction has been added.'A superbly atmospheric story set in the old Prague ghetto featuring the Golem, a kind of rabbinical Frankenstein's monster, which manifests every 33 years in a room without a door. Stranger still, it seems to have the same face as the narrator. Made into a film in 1920, this extraordinary book combines the uncanny psychology of doppelganger stories with expressionism and more than a little melodrama... Meyrink's old Prague — like Dickens's London — is one of the great creation of city writing, an eerie, claustrophobic and fantastical underworld where anything can happen.' Phil Baker in The Sunday Times
Über die Autorinnen und Autoren:
Gustav Meyrink (I868-1932) found worldwide critical and commercial acclaim with his first novel The Golem (I9I5), which prior to the Dedalus Meyrink programme has been the only work, revised in 2017, which was followed by the first English translations of The Green Face, Walpurgisnacht, The Angel of the West Window, The White Dominican, The Opal (and other stories). These were added to by The Dedalus Meyrink Reader, which contained previously untranslated short stories, essays and biographical material as well as a sampler of the rest of the Meyrink oeuvre.
Award-winning translator of 80 books translated from French and German.
