Isherwood's immortal novel about political high-tension, passion and literary talent in 1930s Berlin
Klappentext:
After a chance encounter on a train the English teacher William Bradshaw starts a close friendship with the mildly sinister Arthur Norris. Norris is a man of contradictions; lavish but heavily in debt, excessively polite but sexually deviant. First published in 1933 Mr Norris Changes Trains piquantly evokes the atmosphere of Berlin during the rise of the Nazis.
Rezension:
A supreme example of a radiant prose rhythm married to the most delicious dialogue - a portrait of the subtly ruinous Mr Norris. Sebastian Barry Week
