«Mr. Norris Changes Trains» is the novel by Christopher Isherwood, published by Mandarin in paperback (192 pages, in English).
The novel portrays the encounters in interwar Berlin between the narrator and Mr Norris, an extravagant and slightly sinister character, in an atmosphere that already anticipates the rise of Nazism. With that backdrop, Isherwood composes a work that has become a modern classic of English literature.
First instalment of Isherwood's The Berlin Stories series, the cycle that gathers his Berlin narrative.
For readers of classic, historical and queer fiction who want a glimpse of interwar Berlin.
Christopher Isherwood was an English and American novelist, playwright, screenwriter, autobiographer, and diarist. His best-known works include Goodbye to Berlin (1939), a semi-autobiographical novel which was the basis for Cabaret (1966); A Single Man (1964), adapted into a film directed by Tom Ford in 2009; and Christopher and His Kind (1976), a memoir which "carried him into the heart of the Gay Liberation movement".
