About this listen

Alan Krieger, a rather zany ER nurse in New York, is determined to save America from anti-Semitism. He becomes a would-be golem, invoking the image of a creature that, in folklore, protected the Jewish community in 16th-century Prague.©2006 Marc Estrin (P)2006 Marc Estrin Middle East

Critic reviews

"Golem Song is such a wonderful book because it challenges the reader's assumptions and way of thinking about people and their minds. One can't help but develop a love/hate relationship with Alan Krieger. Love him because of his wit; hate him for who he is." (Vermont Today)
"Estrin's abrasive antihero's commitment to battling false messiahs is morbidly compelling, and his logorrhea is occasionally dazzling. As Estrin raises a host of tough moral questions...and tinkers with the story of the golem, his mind-bending humor is at once intellectual and ribald." (Booklist)
