AUTHOR

Christopher Isherwood

SUMMARY

"...[T]here is something about Christopher Isherwood's work that inspires respect and steady affection for the man, even when he chooses to cross the California bridge of sighs between a swami like Gerald Hard and the word factories of Culver City...Isherwood is a real novelist, a real minor novelist...It is a great distinction to be a minor novelist today; it is much more difficult than to imitate the great novelists...He writes his language--it is not always our language--with the tonal exactitude and humorous economy of a man who can be conventional, so distinct is his verbal inheritance. Isherwood's writing has the music of the old English fineness in it. It never presses or stammers; its correctness is implicit in its wit and it is always headed for the comic; he is a man who touches his language with affectionate brush strokes in exile.Christopher Isherwood is the author of 'The Berlin Stories: The Last of Mr. Norris and Goodbye to Berlin' with ISBN 9781590071984 and ISBN 1590071980.
