The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker
4.0
A newborn golem and a centuries-old jinni search for their places in New York City at the turn of the century.
The book is a study of contrasts: earth and fire, fear and brazenness, the desire for guidance and that for freedom. The beings' polar natures make their unusual relationship and underlying similarities all the more striking.
