    Oh reading this book was such a wonderfully immersive experience.

    Stories in set in New York City can sometimes ring hollow, or synthetic, or overly sentimental but this one doesn't. The direct writing allows for subtle emotion and evocation without ever overwhelming the characters that make up this story.

    And it also helps that this isn't just a New York story--it's burdened with the histories of its characters and it's livened with their cultures and communities, their islands of family and togetherness in a new world. It's a story with global roots that span seas and neighborhoods. There is a wide cast of characters but each has a purpose and each are confronted in their own way with choices that require sacrifice and come with consequences.

    It's an immigrant story, and a very good, subtle one. It's also a transformation story but one that succeeds in staying true to the very natures and histories and truths of its characters. Change comes with consequence and regret and difficulty and sometimes bloodshed, and it never comes completely. But this rings so poignantly true that the book's power is heightened by its refusal to allow any of its characters a blank slate--for who would want that?

    I look forward to the sequel; I can't wait to fall back into the wonder this author has woven

    What a treat. Totally unexpected and delightful. I would imagine audio is best, as Ifelt like I was listening to a beloved grandfather reading me a story. I don't have a beloved grandfather but if I did I would love to have this delightful fable read from this narrator. Highly recommended, especially by audio. Who would have thought? A Golem... and a Genie (jinni)??? It works !

    Very satisfying novel. Good characters, solid writing, and a well-paced plot that kept me reading happily right to the end. The historical and cultural details were carefully researched as well, which added a lot to the overall pleasure. I don't normally like fantasy, but in this case the fantasy elements seemed natural and didn't dominate the story.

    I thought that this was very fast paced. It has a comfortable writing style that I liked. This is another one that hooked me from the get go. The ending is the best part as far as I am concerned. There was a little twist at the end. It is a beautiful blend of fiction, fantasy and folklore. There are elements of both the Jewish and the Muslim culture mixed in. The love story is carefully woven into the background of the book. I give this one a 5 out of 5 stars.

    By far this is the best novel I have read since J.R.R. Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy back 1983! Deeply satisfying and perfectly paced, Helene Wecker's novel is sure to cause a sleepless night or two because you won't want to put it down.

    The story takes place in NYC at the end of the 19th century. Two otherworldly/mythological beings of completely different genii and inherent characteristics unexpectedly find themselves in a foreign land trying to make sense of a culture and race they must learn and imitate to survive. For all intents and purposes they appear to be human, but their "kind" have coexisted with the human race for centuries in their true forms known only to a few. Their arrival in New York happened separately, unbeknownst to each other until one serendipitous evening they meet.

    "The Golem and the Jinni" is an allegorically-woven tale written with unpretentious honesty. Helene Wecker beautifully illustrates both the virtuous and the dark sides of human nature. It's underlying theme brings a fresh awareness that each of us makes choices that define and mold our character; however, only we know what our strengths and struggles are and how easy or difficult it is to portray ourselves positively to the outside world. And for many of us the world's perception is at odds with with our deeper desire of who we aspire to be but have fallen short. One possible explanation could be that we harbor a handicap(s) acquired through nature, nurture or both. And if so, do we have the power to overcome those forces that so effortlessly seem to prevent us from reaching this personal goal? Anyone who has ever felt like a stranger or a minority whether racial or cultural or has been limited by a physical/mental handicap will connect with the characters in "The Golem & the Jinni". Not since J.D. Salingers "The Catcher in the Rye" has a novel captured in intimate detail the inner demons we all battle against or ultimately surrender to.

    For most of the book, I found this tale of a golem and a jinni in turn-of-the-century New York compelling; on finishing it, I suddenly find I have a much more jaundiced view. Perhaps the book deserves credit for not taking an easy way out to its characters' problems, but the climax and resolution of the plot highlighted some unpleasant facets of the book - facets that had been there all along if I had paid sufficient attention. Criticisms aside, it's a cold book, set in a version of our world where genies, golems, and transmigration of souls are not merely plausible, but factual; and yet there is ultimately no moral metaphysics underpinning these metaphysical details. The plot is a melodrama. Here are the criticisms (spoiler): the author plays favorites - certain characters' lives are charmed; no matter how much danger they are in from others or from themselves, they'll survive; while other characters are basically fodder, available to die to make a point (such as, this villain is ruthless). Surely that's always true, but it shouldn't be so obvious. Characters can be counted on not to open up to one another when they ought, but for their secrets to emerge indirectly, in ways that cause the most dramatic ruptures. Finally, near the end of the book, various characters act in ways - make threats, give up - that don't make sense given what the characters know about each other. Still, for most of the book, I enjoyed where I thought it was going.

    This was an interesting story. I think I had heard so much about it that I had built it up too much before I began, so I didn't like it quite as much as I expected to. It was pretty long and the story and characters were very involved. There was quite a bit to keep track of. But it really was an interesting concept and I don't think I've read anything like it before.

    A golem, created of clay for the use of her master who died en route to America, and a jinni, trapped for a thousand years in a jug, before being accidentally released by a metal-smith in New York, forge their way through a very different kind of immigrant experience in 1899 New York City. Not a fantasy fan, I didn’t expect to like this, but the characters were well drawn, their situations believable for their types, and the story engaging. Strong sense of place, both in NYC and the back story in Syria. Recommended.

    I loved this book. It's well-written, deep, original and yet very familiar. I loved each page.The Golem and the Jinni are well-crafted characters - they draw on real folklore and myth, and yet move beyond their storybook histories to emerge in early America as fully-fledged beings. I enjoyed this a lot. I also enjoyed the view into human nature through characters who are, very clearly, not human. Their struggles to walk among humankind without alarming the masses are difficult, alienating, even frightening. They both do it different ways, and present different faces to the world - but in the end, The Golem and the Jinni are both climbing the same mountain. I don't want to say to much. This book holds much magic. There are many threads here, and "coincidences" that end up not being coincidences. Everything in this novel is here on purpose. The end of the book holds a great pay-off for careful reading. And the reading is a joy. Wecker's prose is clean, interesting, and dynamic. The novel is well-paced, and I was never bored or looking to just move to another section. I will absolutely read Wecker's next book. I'm almost sad to learn that it's a sequel, though; I rather enjoyed the untold future I imagined for them. To me, this one ended exactly as it should have.

    Creatures of earth and fire connect in a dazzling debutThere is a certain satisfaction in coming to the end of a long novel, but as the pages dwindled on Helen Wecker’s The Golem and the Jinni, all I felt was grief that this magical story had to end. After 500 pages, I wanted it to go on and on. And if you stop reading this review right now, that’s all you really need to know.You will be shocked to hear that the novel is, in fact, about a golem and a jinni. For those who are unaware, a golem is a figure of Jewish myth, an automaton made of earth or clay, brought to life to do the bidding of another. A jinni (or genie) is a figure of Arab myth, a magical creature of fire. So, before we even get into plot details, look at that fascinating set-up! Jewish/Arab. Earth/fire. Just hearing the premise, I anticipated some sort of culture clash to be central to the tale. And while the story does primarily unfold amongst the Jewish and Syrian immigrant populations of late 19th century New York, it is not a parable of Mid-East conflict. This was merely the first of many instances when Ms. Wecker defied convention and expectation, keeping me guessing in what direction her tale would evolve, again and again.Talk about defying convention—the titular golem is a woman, and self-aware. She was originally created (with a laundry list of attributes that included intelligence, curiosity, and propriety) to be a rich merchant’s wife. He, alas, died en route to America, shortly after bringing her to life. She arrived at Ellis Island without a master or a plan. The jinni, on the other hand, was freed from imprisonment in a flask—but don’t expect him to start granting wishes any time soon.This is the story of two creatures in turn of the century New York who are both Old Worldly and otherworldly. Separately, they must find their way in circumstances that neither is prepared for, all the while concealing their essential natures. As the golem says to the jinni, “We’re our natures, you and I.” Because, yes, eventually their paths do cross and it’s the start of a most unexpected friendship.Can I tell you? This wonderful, literary fantasy left me wanting to slap the next writer who sits down in front of a keyboard and starts typing about a vampire. Ms. Wecker has created a story unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Her central characters, while not human, share a deep humanity (for better or worse) and are beautifully drawn. Other characters, which at first seem peripheral to the tale, prove to be central, as Wecker’s story expands encompassing a larger community. And at all times the relationships depicted between men, women, creatures, adults, children, friends, lovers, and enemies were complex, unpredictable, and captivating. The novel’s prose is as rich as the period setting is evocative. And while I really haven’t gone into any detail, please know that the plotting is both elegant and assured. Of course, there IS culture clash in this novel, and conflict galore. But in every instance that her tale could be ordinary, Ms. Wecker makes it extraordinary. The lush cultures, heritage, and history depicted so beautifully are merely the jumping off point for a dazzlingly inventive fantasy. Where did this writer come from, and how is it possible that this accomplished work is her debut? It is sure to be one of the literary highlights of the year!

    A very intriguing book. I'm familiar with both Golem and Jinni but never thought I would encounter them together in the same book. Helene Wecker not only combined two completely different mythological creatures, but she did it extremely well. The title summary refers to this novel as "an enchanting combination" and this book was exactly that! Chava and Ahmad are wonderful characters! I love them both, along with all the people they meet in Manhattan. I learned a great deal about Middle Eastern literature and Kabbalistic magic while reading this book.This book is unique and I will recommend it to anyone who enjoys something out of the ordinary.

    More 4.5 than really 5 star but I really did enjoy the read, one of the best of the year.

    It's a tale of a Golem and a Djinni in New York at the turn of the twentieth century. It's a romance, an exploration of what it means to be human and what it means to be different, interlaced with peril and complications. I liked the characters and watching their growth. This is an author I want to read more of.

    In 1899 on a ship bound from Danzig to New York, a Prussian Jew transports the wife created for him from clay, human remains, and secret Hebrew commands. But he falls ill and, against the advice of the man who created her, brings the golem to life. Before they even reach New York, her master is dead. In a neighborhood of Lower Manhattan, a tinsmith attempts to repair an old copper flask and, instead, releases a powerful jinni, imprisoned by a wizard possibly thousands of years ago in the Syrian desert. The Golem was designed to be obedient, virtuous, modest, curious, and intelligent. But she can also sense the desires of others, an ability that proves both a gift and a curse. The Jinni is handicapped by a metal band around his wrist that prevents him from changing form but he can still enter the dreams of humans and cares little about the consequences of his actions.Helene Wecker takes two legendary characters and drops them in New York City at the turn of the century to see how they survive. Unidentified segments of the Jinni's memory add to the intrigue as does the arrival of the Golem's creator. Wecker explores facets of human nature and evil in a shimmering tableau of ancient lore, old New York, and wholly fascinating characters .

    Although it was a little slow to start and I have to admit I got a tad bored at times, this book was just fantastic! I absolutely loved the folklore, the characters (the Golem and the Jinni were so badass, I loved them both for totally different reasons), the settings, the different cultures, the writing, it was all impeccably done. And add onto that the multiple perspectives and storylines that were woven together and DING DING DING, we have a winner!

    This would've definitely been a 5 star book were it not for the slow start in those first 150 pages or so. I don't really mind slow paced books that much but the beginning of this one made me a bit antsy, particularly due to the lack of plot. Sure, things were happening, but they weren't all that exciting. (In hindsight, all of the exposition was really important in setting up the story but I still feel like it could've been executed better). Regardless, I'm very happy I pushed myself because it was so worth it.

    I would definitely recommend The Golem and the Jinni but please, go into with one thing in mind: be patient. It might seem boring and overdrawn at first but trust me, when it all comes together in the end your mind will be blown (ALL THE PLOT TWISTS I TELL YOU!).

    The Golem and The Jinni is Helen Wecker's debut novel.....and oh boy, what a debut! We're quite used to books about 'supernatural' beings - vampires, werewolves, witches and more. But Wecker's two protagonists aren't as 'famous'. Otto Rotfield wants a wife to take with him when he emigrates to America. But, he wants her to fit the mold he has imagined. To that end, he approaches a man steeped in mystery and asks him to create a Golem - a creature made entirely of clay and destined to serve its master's every command. She is a masterpiece. When Otto falls ill on the boat journey, he manages to animate the Golem before he dies. And so this creature lands in New York City in 1899, uninformed as to the ways of the world, how to behave, what to expect and how she will hide among the humans. It is her good luck that an old rabbi recognizes her for what she is - and takes her in. Not far away in Little Syria (Lower Manhattan) a local woman brings a battered copper flask to the neighbourhood metalworker for repair. When he erases one of the intricate designs that encircle the flask......you guessed it - a Jinni is released. The Jinni faces the same challenges as that of the Golem - he has been trapped in the flask for thousands of years. And chance being what it is, these two beings - one of earth and one of fire - meet, and each recognizes that the other is not of this world. Their lives are entwined in ways they could not imagine....and someone else is watching them... Oh, where to start! The setting is beautifully brought to life by Wecker. The lives of immigrants, the wealthy, the tenements, daily life, night life, attractions such as Central Park and more provide a rich and detailed background for Wecker's novel. The Golem and the Jinni are both mythical creatures, but Wecker's writing made them very real and 'human'. I found myself so caught up in their story, rooting for them and hoping they would find happiness. The supporting cast of characters is just as well drawn and equally compelling. This was such a unique and different idea for a novel. Middle Eastern mysticism mixed with Jewish folklore and dipped into New York City's rich history. And under Wecker's skillful pen, it really works. But such is the stuff of magical stories - dastardly villains, good vs. evil, sacrifice, love won and lost, fast friendships and more. And this is the feeling that Helene Wecker's novel gave me - that I was sitting in a beautiful silk tent somewhere in the desert, reclining on pillows and listening to Scheherazade spin one of her 1001 tales. I was enthralled from first page to last. Wecker has truly woven a magical debut.

    A thoroughly enjoyable read and I loved the concept of a female Golem that has the ability to think and make decisions on her own. This is also another great debut that I have read this year. It is hard to put into words what made this book so great for me but the use of culture, folklore and location fit perfectly.

    The Golem and the Jinni more than lives up to the promise of its irresistible premise--two mythical beings with very different natures meet and form an uneasy bound in 1899 New York City. The Golem, a woman made of clay, was created by a former rabbi who dabbles in forbidden arts; the Jinni, a man made of fire, has been trapped inside a copper flask for a thousand years, but can't remember how he got there. United by a restlessness resulting from having to mask their true identities and make lives in a place that's foreign to both of them, the Golem and the Jinni spend the long nighttime hours roaming the immigrant neighborhoods of their adopted home together, but a menace from the past is stalking them. The many strands of this story are slowly but mesmerizingly woven together, with some plot line connections not revealed until almost the end of the book. I haven't enjoyed a total immersion in such a rich and magic-tinged world since Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell.
