Life is not so bad if you have plenty of luck, a good physique, and not too much imagination. One should never write down or up to people, but out of yourself. Every writer has certain subjects that they write about again and again, and . . . most people's books are just variations on certain themes. I'll bet Shakespeare compromised himself a lot; anybody who's in the entertainment industry does to some extent.

Isherwood, Christopher (1904-1986)
page: A major Anglo-American novelist and a pioneer in the gay liberation movement, Christopher Isherwood created gay characters whose homosexuality is a simple given, an integral part of the wholeness of personality and an emblem of their common humanity. Born into a distinguished Cheshire family on August 26, 1904, Christopher Isherwood was educated at Repton School and Corpus Christi, Cambridge. After leaving Cambridge without a degree in 1925, he renewed his friendship with W. H. Auden, his former classmate at St. Edmund's preparatory school. Sponsor Message.
For over ten years, the two shared an unromantic relationship in which sex gave their friendship an added dimension. Two years his junior, Auden cast Isherwood in the role of literary mentor and soon introduced him to a fellow Oxford undergraduate, Stephen Spender. The trio formed the nucleus of what would later be called The Auden Gang, the angry young writers who dominated the English literary scene of the 1930s. From 1930 to 1933, Isherwood lived in Berlin, where he felt released from the social and sexual inhibitions that stifled his development in England. Immersing himself in the bohemian world of male prostitutes, he lived almost anonymously in shabbily genteel and working-class areas of the city and began translating his experience of the demimonde into what would eventually become the unsurpassed portrait of pre-Hitler Germany, the Berlin stories.

d. Jan. 4, 1986, Santa Monica, California, U.S. byname OF CHRISTOPHER WILLIAM BRADSHAW-ISHERWOOD Anglo-American novelist and playwright best known for his novels about Berlin in the early 1930s. After working as a secretary and a private tutor, Isherwood gained a measure of coterie recognition with his first two novels, All the Conspirators (1928) and The Memorial (1932). During the 1930s he collaborated with his friend W.H. Auden on three verse dramas, including The Ascent of F6 (1936). But it had been in 1929 that he found the theme that was to make him widely known. Between 1929 and 1933 he lived in Berlin, gaining an outsider's view of the simultaneous decay of the Weimar Republic and the rise of Nazism. His novels Mr. Norris Changes Trains (1935; The Last of Mr. Norris) and Goodbye to Berlin (1939), which were later published together as The Berlin Stories, established his reputation as an important writer and inspired the play I Am a Camera (1951; film 1955) and the musical

Christopher Isherwood
E scritor anglo-estadounidense nacido en Disley, Cheshire. Estudió en la Universidad de Cambridge. Allí conoció a W. H. Auden con el que más adelante, en 1938, viajó a China. Sus primeras novelas, Todos los conspiradores (1928) y El monumento (1932), muestran la influencia de E. M. Forster y Virginia Woolf en su obra. Su experiencia como profesor en Berlín (1928-1933) le proporcionó el escenario para Adiós a Berlín (1939), que en 1946 se reeditó con el título de Los relatos de Berlín . Estos cuentos, en los que advertía sobre el creciente poder del nazismo, fueron adaptados por John van Druten en la obra de teatro Soy una cámara (1951) y para una película (1955), así como para la obra de teatro Cabaret (1966) y una película musical (1972) del mismo título. En colaboración con Auden, Isherwood escribió tres obras de teatro experimentales: El perro bajo la piel El despegue del F6 (1936) y En la frontera (1938). Su novela semiautobiográfica Leones y sombras , en la que entre otros aparecen sus amigos Auden y Spender con nombres ficticios, se publicó en 1938, y Kathleen y Frank , la biografía de sus padres, en 1972. En 1939 Isherwood se estableció en Estados Unidos. Sus novelas siguientes

Christopher Isherwood
Born 26th. August, 1904, in Disley, Cheshire, England; died 4th. January, 1986.
Anglo-American writer. Full name: Christopher William Bradshaw Isherwood Son of an army officer killed in World War I. One of his preparatary school friends was W. H. Auden (who became a poet). Christopher Isherwood went to school at Repton. He then went to Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. He then studied medicine at King's College London (1928-29). He gave up medicine to teach English in Germany (1930-33). He lived behind the Nollendorfplatz in Berlin. His novels Mr Norris Changes Trains and Goodbye to Berlin were based on his experience of post-slump, pre-Hitler Berlin. These became the basis, first of the play (1952) and film (1955) I Am a Camera , and then of the musical (1966) and film (1972) Cabaret While in Germany Christopher Isherwood had a boyfriend, Heinz, who was wanted by the police for draft evasion. He tried to get him out of the country by paying Gerald Hamilton (1888-1970) £1000 to smooth the way towards obtaining Mexican naturalisation for Heinz. Nothing came of it and Christopher Isherwood came to regard Gerald Hamilton as a rogue laced with poison. He is represented by Authur Norris in Mr Norris Changes Trains . Gerald Hamilton was also friends with Ferdinand, ex-King of Bulgaria who awarded him various decorations which he sold.
