Synopsis

'I'm the type which every man imagines he wants, until he gets me; and then he finds he doesn't really, after all'

Goodbye to Berlin is the novella that inspired Cabaret, evoking the glamour and sleaze, excess and repression of Berlin society. Isherwood shows the lives of people under threat from the rise of the Nazis: a wealthy Jewish heiress, Natalia Landauer, a gay couple, Peter and Otto, and an English upper-class waif, the divinely decadent Sally Bowles.

VINTAGE DECO: Nine blazing, daring novels to celebrate the 1920s - 100 years on.
