A broken, sick and troubled poet commissions a carpenter to create for him a golem. He hopes it will cure him of his crushing loneliness.
But he is not as alone as he imagines. The influence of others is all around him, even in his creation.
This story was beautiful and disturbing. There was the feeling of powers held in check by will or simple chance that gave it a foreboding atmosphere. And yet, it was beautiful and sad and spoke to the fleetingness of life.
It was a surprising story that will stay with me to be sure.
