The Golem, a creature made of clay and brought to life by Rabbi Leyb of Prague in the sixteenth century, has provided an enticing subject for fiction writers since the legend began. In some works, Rabbi Leyb gives birth to the Golem to help the Jews with the overbearing burden of their work. In others, the Golem is the protector of the Jews, keeping watch during the nights before Passover to make sure that a Gentile does not plant evidence for a blood libel in a Jewish home. But the powerful Golem can also lose control and have to be destroyed. Joachim Neugroschel has brought together some of the best work featuring the Golem, including H. Leivick's masterful blank verse play; Yudl Rosenberg's "pamphlet" full of Golem tales; and stories by S. Bastomski, Dovid Frishman, and Y. L. Peretz, which he translates fluidly from the Yiddish.

On a fateful day in May 1941, in Nazi-occupied Strasbourg, seventeen-year- old Pierre Seel was summoned by the Gestapo. This was the beginning of his journey through the horrors of a concentration camp. For nearly forty years, Seel kept this secret in order to hide his homosexuality. Eventually he decided to speak out, bearing witness to an aspect of the Holocaust rarely seen. This edition, with a new foreword from gay-literature historian Gregory Woods, is an extraordinary firsthand account of the Nazi roundup and the deportation of homosexuals.

“In Neugroschel’s version we see more of Kafka’s meaning, his unexpected comedy…we have for the first time the sense of understanding Kafka’s complexity and where it might lead us.” —Chicago Tribune A classic translation of Kafka’s best-known, and most obscure, short fiction—with a new foreword from celebrated writer Ling Ma.Widely recognized as one of the preeminent English-language anthologies of Kafka’s stories, this critically acclaimed collection assembles the great short works of one of the twentieth century’s most influential writers. With masterful attentiveness to the intricacies of Kafka’s dialect of Prague German, this is an essential selection of forty-four stories, including such timeless works of fiction as “The Metamorphosis,” “In the Penal Colony,” and “The Judgment.” Brought into the present by a foreword from Ling Ma, Kafka’s work has never been more relevant to contemporary literature—nor has Kafka himself ever been a keener observer of the human condition, with his singular apprehension of power, the absurd, and the enigma and alienation at the center of modern living.
