Описание:
"Kathleen and Frank" is a love story set in the glory days of the British Empire, the last decades before World War I
It is the story of Christopher Isherwood s parents, the winsome and lively daughter of a successful wine merchant and the reticent, artistically gifted soldier-son of a country squire. They met in 1895 outside a music rehearsal in an army camp and married in 1903 after Christopher s father returned from the Boer War. Frank was killed in an assault near Ypres in 1915; Kathleen remained a widow for the rest of her life.
Their story is told through letters and Kathleen s diary, with connecting commentary by Isherwood. Kathleen and Frank is a family memoir, but it is also a richly detailed social history of a period of striking change Queen Victoria s funeral, Bleriot s flight across the English Channel, Sarah Bernhardt s "Hamlet," suffragettes, rising hemlines, the beginning of the Troubles in Ireland the period that shaped Isherwood himself.
As a young man, Isherwood fled the tragedy that engulfed his parents lives and threatened his own; in Kathleen and Frank, he reweaves the tapestry of family and heritage and places himself in the pattern."

Описание: The author journeyed and changed with his century, until, by the 1980s, he was celebrated as the finest prose writer in English and the Grand Old Man of Gay Liberation. In this book, he reveals how the fear of death crowded in his fame, and shows how his life-long immersion lifted him, paradoxically, towards transcendence.

Описание:
"Lions and Shadows" blends autobiography and fiction to describe the true education of a writer evolving from precocious schoolboy to dropoutatlarge in London s bohemia of the 1920s. Forced to withdraw from Cambridge University, Christopher Isherwood works as a tutor to the privileged, serves as the secretary to a busy string quartet, ill-fatedly attends medical school. Licensed by names he invents, he works up extravagant portraits of his brilliant contemporaries W. H. Auden, Edward Upward, and Stephen Spender, whose intimate friendships and cult of rebellion changed the literary identity of England in the 1930s.
Although the story is Isherwood s own life story, carrying him up to the age of twenty-five, he gives free rein to his remarkable powers of dramatization, improving on the facts here and there, to make a highly entertaining, sometimes hilarious book.
Read it as a novel, says Isherwood. There is no difficulty taking his advice. But his characters were real people, and when "Lions and Shadows" was first published, in 1938, it transformed their lives into legend."
