Year: 2175.
City: New York.
Context: a hallucinated megalopolis composed of a mishmash of religions and races, specialists in miracles, necromancer psychologists, esteemed necrophiles, perfume creators, etc...etc...
Adida Indidni, Subadar of the venomous Gaffe, is the protagonist.
His task is to unveil the secret hidden behind the fury of an inexplicable and elusive monster.
“What is it? burst out Indidni. What is it that drives him, please?
I have never seen... Never. Do you see it? Do we see it? They saw a curved silhouette, a killer of burnished metal color, that burned and gleamed; that had form and didn’t have it.
It was amoebic, amorphous, proteiform, and fluid as it extruded legs, feet, fins...the silhouette vanished, leaving only its characteristic stench to trouble the Subadar's nostrils.”.
Golem¹⁰⁰ is an experimental novel that cannot be classified.
Bester is an unusual, excessive, uncontainable, extravagant, unpredictable, inimitable author, and much more.
He employs the most varied typographic, numerical, alphabetic, and musical artifices to sublimate the writing into a unique personal style, influencing generations of authors.
The avant-garde writing is highlighted by the brilliant illustrations of J. Gaughan, which add further eccentricity to the book.
Noteworthy is the superb quality of the edition.
Enriched by prints, quality paper and binding, up to the laminated dust jacket.

I can return to box.
Nnnn! Listen!”.
