Quatrième de couverture :
'He had dazzling talents as a writer. His literary production was pre-eminent for its wit, humour, charm of style and narrative skill... A Single Man can be considered as his masterpiece' John Lehmann, Guardian
'An absolutely devastating, unnerving, brilliant book' Stephen Spender
In this brilliantly perceptive novel, a middle-aged professor living in California is alienated from his students by differences in age and nationality, and from the rest of society by his homosexuality. Isherwood explores the depths of the human soul and its ability to triumph over loneliness, alienation and loss.
'He strikes a note of great intimacy with the reader as if with a close personal friend, and a sense of total honesty is sought. This style - witty, observant, nostalgic, exact - was Isherwood's great contribution to modern literature' Financial Times
'Very sad and yet at times wildly funny' Daily Telegraph
[credit block]
Also by Christopher Isherwood: [jpegs for Goodbye to Berlin and Mr Norris Changes Trains if they are available]

George, the middle-fiftyish English don at the Californian university, has lost his boyfriend, killed in a motor crash. He carries on with his life, making faces at the children in the nearby houses, lecturing on Aldous Huxley, gossiping [and] drinking too much...All the time he is tormented by his urges: the sight of a blond young man playing tennis, a chance meeting with one of his students, for whom George has been nursing a passion, which leads to drunken nude bathing.
'Mr Isherwood has not written anything as good as this for a long time. It is all very sad and yet at times wildly funny...The description of the Californian scene is bitter, nostalgic, yet at the same time tinged with love' David Holloway, Daily Telegraph
'A testament to Isherwood's undiminished brilliance as a novelist' Anthony Burgess, The Listener
