Born Aug. 26, 1904, High Lane, Cheshire, Eng. — died Jan. 4, 1986, Santa Monica, Calif., U.S. British-born U.S. writer.
Educated at Cambridge University, he became close friends with W.H. Auden, with whom he traveled and collaborated on three verse dramas, including The Ascent of F6 (1936). He lived in Berlin from 1929 to 1933; his two novels about this period, later published together as The Berlin Stories (1946), inspired the play I Am a Camera (1951; film, 1955) and the musical Cabaret (1966; film, 1972).

Goodbye to Berlin is a short novel by Christopher Isherwood. It is often published together with The Last of Mr. Norris in a collection called The Berlin Stories.
The novel, a semiautobiographical account of Isherwood's time in 1930s Berlin, describes pre-Nazi Germany and the people he met.
Moving to Germany to work on his novel, Isherwood soon becomes involved with many different German citizens: The caring landlady, Frau. Shroeder; the "divinely decadent" Sally Bowles, a young English woman who sings in the local Cabaret; Natalia Laundauer, the rich, Jewish heiress of a prosperous family business; Peter and Otto, a couple struggling to accept their relationship in light of the rise of the Nazis.
The book, first published in 1939, ironically highlights the groups of people who would be most at risk from Nazi intimidation.
Cabaret电影版拍得真好, 当然也多亏了John Kander的音乐,剧情改编不少,不过每次看书里写到Sally说my darling时Liza的脸就浮现在眼前,形象和气质都太像了。
评分读原版书没什么快感
评分Love how he describes these fascinating characters in the book.esp. the mysterious jew. and the way he involves himself with all the people and the surrounding is just too good to be true
评分又是以一个aloof的旁观者角度来记录一切
评分几乎是不带任何感情色彩,不带任何involvement感觉的描写30年代初的柏林,一个马上就要(再一次)成为历史漩涡核心的大城市普通人们的百态。就像作者自己说的,自己只不过是相机镜头,纯粹纪录而已。镜头一流,但是还有哪个城市能比柏林提供更好的素材呢
