«Adiós a Berlín» is the novel by Christopher Isherwood, published by Mediasat - El Mundo in hardcover (222 pages, in Spanish).
The narrator, a stand-in for Isherwood himself, observes a group of marginal and often comic characters in 1930s Berlin. Their stories form a document about a city in decline and morally corrupt, and about a society heading toward capitulation to Nazism, where reality and fiction merge.
Edition from the Biblioteca El Mundo collection (no. 25), with a prologue by Javier Alfaya and translation by Jaime Gil de Biedma. It is the second part of the series The Berlin Stories.
A work for readers of twentieth-century classic fiction and historical fiction set in 1930s Berlin.
Christopher Isherwood was an English and American novelist, playwright, screenwriter, autobiographer, and diarist. His best-known works include Goodbye to Berlin (1939), a semi-autobiographical novel which was the basis for Cabaret (1966); A Single Man (1964), adapted into a film directed by Tom Ford in 2009; and Christopher and His Kind (1976), a memoir which "carried him into the heart of the Gay Liberation movement".
