"This book remains a classic in gay liberation literature and is one of Christopher Isherwood's greatest achievements. It covers the most memorable ten years in the writer's life, from 1929, when Isherwood left England to spend a week in Berlin and decided to stay there indefinitely, to 1939, when he arrived in America. When the book was published in 1976, readers were deeply impressed by the courageous candor with which he describes his life in gay Berlin of the 1930s and his struggles to save his companion, Heinz, from the Nazis." - Publisher.. 1st.
