Isherwood on Writing

The Complete Lectures in California

Herausgeber: Berg, James J

Beschreibung

"In the 1960s, Christopher Isherwood gave an unprecedented series of lectures at California universities about his life and work. During this time Isherwood, who would liberate the memoir and become the founding father of modern gay writing, spoke openly for the first time about his craft--on writing for film, theater, and novels--and spirituality. [This book] brings these free-flowing, wide-ranging public addresses together to reveal a distinctly American Isherwood at the top of his form"--
