      Prologue

      Saul Kisses the Golem

      Saul got dressed for his sister’s 75th birthday sure of at least one thing. It was time to tell his nephew Jacob about his birthright. He generally avoided family events. He loved his sister, but he knew everyone called him a faygelah, Yiddish for fairy, behind his back. He knew they thought he was queer. He was far too old to care at this point. More than fifty years of being gay, and he had seen it all, and he had something he had to do.

      He saw the shadow in his vision. That shadow had been there for fifty years, just a little beyond the corner of his eye. He knew it was there but could never look at it directly. It was time to pass it on.

      Fifty years ago, his great uncle Avrum, had told him the family secret. Avrum had survived the Holocaust even with a yellow star for being Jewish. He should have had a pink triangle too for being gay, but he managed to keep that under wraps. He couldn’t have survived any other way. He also had the family birthright. Fifty years ago, he passed it onto Saul. Now, it was Saul’s turn to pass it onto Jacob.

      The family possessed a Golem, a mythical figure made of clay, dirt and/or mud imbued with life who saves Jews. Or maybe the Golem possessed them. It wasn’t always clear, but the Golem had been created by an ancestor in 17th century Poland as protection from marauders that were pillaging the region. The village was burning, and the ancestor had made this giant man of clay who chased the invaders away and carried his family through the flames to safety.

      Saul didn’t know if his forebear knew that he had created a gay Golem, but he did. And somehow this gay Golem got passed from one gay relative to another. There seemed
