Subtitled 'An education in the twenties', this work blends autobiography and fiction to describe the inner life of a writer evolving from precocious public school boy to Cambridge drop-out at large in Londons Bohemia. It contains thinly veiled portraits of Isherwoods contemporaries Auden, Upward, and Spender, whose intimate friendships and cult of rebellion shaped the literary identity of England in the 1930s. Witty and outrageous, Isherwood pokes fun at the stars of his generation, above all himself, even as he testifies to their unique early gifts. The book is in good condition but most of the dust jacket is missing. The first page is slightly foxed, there is an ex libris sticker on the inside of the cover; the spine is slightly marked
