Danny Cornish, a wandering curator, learns in Tel Aviv that his great‑uncle in Birobidzhan, Russia’s Jewish region, has died, leaving an art collection and a Golem statue hand. Though he doesn’t speak Russian, he travels to Moscow, St Pet­erburg and Siberia, dealing with clerks, taxis and bureaucracy while hunting the missing pieces and confronting myths of art.
