A Novel of the Golem and the Jinni
Paperback | Fiction/Fantasy / Historical
“The Hidden Palace recaptures the assured voice, the delicate magic, the solid historical verisimilitude, and engaging interplay of personalities of The Golem and the Jinni. . . . But Wecker deepens, extends, and culminates all the story arcs, leaving the reader very satisfied.”—Locus
“Richly nuanced and beautiful. . . . An immersive and magical tale of loneliness, love, and finding hope.”—Buzzfeed
Chava is a golem, a woman made of clay, who can hear the thoughts and longings of those around her and feels compelled by her nature to help them. Ahmad is a jinni, a restless creature of fire, once free to roam the desert but now imprisoned in the shape of a man. Fearing they’ll be exposed as monsters, these magical beings hide their true selves and try to pass as human—just two more immigrants in the bustling world of 1900s Manhattan. Brought together under calamitous circumstances, their lives are now entwine
