«Mr Norris Changes Trains» is the novel by Christopher Isherwood, published by HarperCollins in paperback (192 pages, in English).
The story revolves around an Englishman of polite manners and unclear business in interwar Berlin. Around him, financial and political plots are woven as the city approaches the rise of Nazism. Isherwood thus offers a portrait of moral ambiguity and social decay in a time of political change.
The novel originally appeared in 1935; this English edition is from 1977. The cover mentions Isherwood as the author of «Goodbye to Berlin».
For those seeking a novel set in interwar Berlin, with political intrigue and morally ambiguous characters.
