amazing coincidence of kavalier & clay

I think I am meant to read Chabon's Kavalier & Clay.

The beginning of the story is set in Prague - my #1 wishlist travel destination as of now.

One part of the story involves the smuggling of a golem, which is an inanimate man made of mud. In this season's Amazing Race, one challenge involves the creation of a golem and then delivering it to a rabbi.

And finally, there is a reference to Paul Klee - probably my favorite painter of all time.

Funny how these things work. You can't argue that in many surprising ways, life is a full circle.
