From the back cover – “After the sudden death of his
longtime lover, George must adjust to life on his own as a professor in
Southern California in the early 1960s.
During the course of an ordinary day, George is haunted by memories as
he seeks connections with the world around him.
Wry, funny, and melancholy. A Single Man is a moving portrait of a
gay man in midlife.”
This is also a movie starring Colin Firth and Julianne
Moore. Another Isherwood work is his
collection of short stories Goodbye to
Berlin, which inspired the musical and film Cabaret.
