First published in the 1930s, The Berlin Stories contains two novels, The Last of Mr. Norris and Goodbye to Berlin. Classics of modern fiction, these novellas capture 1931 Berlin—charming, grotesque, and dangerous, as Hitler was ascending to power. The Berlin Stories is inhabited by a wealth of characters, in particular the nightclub performer Sally Bowles, whose misadventures were popularized on stage and screen in I Am a Camera and Cabaret.

Story0
On a train to Berlin in late 1930, William Bradshaw locks eyes with Arthur Norris. This chance encounter ignites a close friendship between the two Englishmen, one that draws Bradshaw into the seedier quarters of the city. Here, Norris runs a dubious import–export business and lives in excited fear of his bullying secretary, his creditors and his dominatrix girlfriend, Anni. Yet there is something sinister about Norris himself. Bradshaw’s new companion is a man of contradictions: heavily in debt but extraordinarily lavish, excessively polite but sexually deviant.

Story0
With one impatient phone call, a young Christopher Isherwood is drawn into the film industry. On the other end of the line is the brilliant yet temperamental Austrian director Friedrich Bergmann. Christopher’s job is to rescue the script of a saccharine love story set in nineteenth-century Vienna, a film called Prater Violet. Meanwhile, in the real Vienna of 1934, the Austrian right crushes a socialist uprising. Bergmann is distraught; his family is in danger in Vienna, while his prophecy of a coming war goes unheeded by his British colleagues.

Story0
Arthur Norris colpisce immediatamente l'alter ego di Christopher Isherwood, il giovane William Bradshaw, che lo incontra nello scompartimento di un treno diretto in Germania. Col tempo Norris si rivelerà un avventuriero incline al misfatto e allo sperpero, un simpatizzante comunista che folleggia disinvolto nel basso ventre della Berlino dei primi anni Trenta. In pratica l'amico perfetto per William, approdato a Berlino per vivere una vacanza prolungata, lontana dalle costrizioni della famiglia. Finché, nell'inverno del 1933, il gioco inizierà a farsi troppo serio...

Story0
Un giovane uomo, alter ego dell’autore, nel 1930 si trasferisce a Berlino per insegnare inglese. Sono gli ultimi anni della Repubblica di Weimar, poco prima dell’ascesa del Nazismo e su questo sfondo si muovono una serie di personaggi sopra le righe: artisti, intellettuali, borghesi, ricchi, poveri, folli. Tra cabaret e caffè, tra case signorili e squallide pensioni, tra file per il pane e manifestazioni di piazza, tra crisi economica, Isherwood ci consegna una purissima, scabra narrazione che ci ricorda come la Storia sia sempre contemporanea.

Story0
Die letzten Tage der Weimarer Republik in Berlin. Die Menschen verschließen die Augen vor der drohenden Katastrophe und feiern sich um den Verstand: zwei junge Männer, die in fataler Weise voneinander abhängen, eine vermögende jüdische Familie, die das nahende Unglück nicht wahrhaben will sowie zahlreiche Mitglieder der Halbwelt. Mitten unter ihnen träumt die hinreißend leichtsinnige Nachtclubsängerin Sally Bowles von der großen Karriere. Im Hintergrund der Szenerie marschieren bereits die Nazis auf.
