Christopher Isherwood was an English-American novelist. His best-known works include The Berlin Stories (1935–39), two semi-autobiographical novellas inspired by Isherwood’s time in Weimar Republic Germany.
These enhanced his postwar reputation when they were adapted first into the play I Am a Camera (1951), then the 1955 film of the same name, I am a Camera; much later (1966) into the bravura stage musical Cabaret which was acclaimed on Broadway, and Bob Fosse’s inventive re-creation for the film Cabaret (1972). His novel A Single Man was published in 1964.
