Literary Fiction
by Helene Wecker · The Golem and the Jinni series
In 1899 New York, a golem created to be a wife and a djinni trapped in human form find themselves adrift among immigrant communities. Their unlikely friendship becomes a portal into questions of freedom, belonging, and what it means to be human. Wecker blends folklore with historical fiction in a luminous debut.
