  • "El impresionante debut de Helene Wecker narra la historia de dos criaturas sobrenaturales en el Nueva York de 1899. Chava es un golem, un ser hecho de arcilla al que dio vida un extra©ło hombre familiarizado con la magia negra cabal©Ưstica. Cuando su amo muere a bordo en el trayecto transoce©Łnico desde Europa, queda desorientada y a la deriva mientras el barco sigue su curso hasta el puerto de Nueva York. Ahmad es un genio, un ser de fuego nacido en el desierto de la antigua Siria. Atrapado en un viejo jarro de cobre por un hechicero beduino varios siglos atr©Łs, es liberado por accidente en el taller de un hojalatero del Bajo Manhattan. En su lucha por abrirse camino en ese lugar nuevo y extra©ło, la golem y el genio procuran encajar con sus vecinos, todos ellos inmigrantes, encubriendo su verdadera naturaleza. Al conocerse por casualidad, las dos criaturas inician una improbable amistad, una uni©đn quebradiza que desaf©Ưa sus naturalezas opuestas, hasta la noche en que un horrible incidente las devuelve a sus universos respectivos. Sin embargo, una potente amenaza volver©Ł a reunir pronto a ambos: estar©Ł en juego su existencia, lo que les obligar©Ł a tomar una fat©Ưdica decisi©đn."
