Chapter 15: The Golem in the Attic

from The Redemption Inquiry Hosted by Michael Diamond

Chapter 15: The Golem in the Attic In which the young Rav Krishna treats the crowd to a medieval tale from a sacred family tome, “The Diary of Michel Lepécheur.” It is Annus 1309, the primordial inflection, when the cosmic wheel gets turning. Being has swan-dived from Boundlessness, splashed into Emanation’s tub. The underpinning of tribal and religious empires is challenged by the beauty and terror of science and of workers’ collectives. And in the world of art and music, the rug’s been pulled out from under the old guys. On the Left Bank of the Seine, a redeemed narrator wields the Power of the Golem, the baton passed to him by his predecessors on account of the beleaguered Israelitish People.
