Editorial Reviews

Review

“An absolutely devastating, unnerving, brilliant book.” ―Stephen Spender

“Isherwood's
A Single Man, published in 1964, is one of the first and best novels of the modern gay liberation movement.” ―Edmund White

“A testimony to Isherwood's undiminished brilliance as a novelist.” ―
Anthony Burgess

About the Author

Christopher Isherwood (1904-1986) was born outside of Manchester, England. His life in Berlin from 1929 to 1933 inspired The Berlin Stories, which were adapted into a play, a film, and the musical Cabaret. Isherwood immigrated to the United States in 1939. A major figure in twentieth-century fiction and the gay rights movement, he wrote more than twenty books, including the novel A Single Man and his autobiography, Christopher and His Kind.
