The Isherwood Century

James J. Berg

Called "the best English prose writer of this century" by Gore Vidal, Christopher Isherwood is best known for Goodbye to Berlin-the inspiration for the musical Cabaret-but is also the author of plays, novels, and diaries. The Isherwood Century gathers twenty-four essays and interviews offering a fresh, in-depth view of Isherwood, his literary legacy, and his continuing influence as both a literary and a gay pioneer.
