Description:
Vienna, AU: The Golem / Printing Office John N. Vernay, ( 1925 ). First English Language Edition, regular state. Hardcover. Near Fine. 12mo, 247 pages, black cloth, tender front hinge, tight, bright. The Golem, the legendary Jewish bogeyman. Translated by Harry Schneiderman. The stories here originally appeared in 1917 in "Oesterreichischen Wochenschrift". "One feels a kind of rapture in reading these stories. I think that the same longing for deliverance, which led our ancestors to the compiling of such beautiful tales, also transports us into a beautiful dream, makes us forget the terrible truth and thus we feel so happy in the reading of such tales!" - Dr. Isaac Alcalay, Chief Rabbi of Yugoslavia. With ten plates, including "The Golem" by Georg Jilovsky. This text shows the signs of having been printed by a non-English speller. Bloch had traveled to America to raise the funds to have this edition produced from the German original.
