Gustav Meyrink’s novel about the Golem legend is a firmly established classic tale of old Prague, which has captivated millions since 1915. Meyrink uses cabbalistic imagery, nightmares and visions to create a gripping story of the murky character from the Prague ghetto and his alter ego Athanasius Pernath.

This critical and authentic new version reconstructs Meyrink’s luxury lithographed edition, reproducing all 25 illustrations by Hugo Steiner-Prag for the first time – a true bibliophile’s delight.
