The Berlin Stories
de Isherwood, Christopher
The Berlin Stories, by
Christopher Isherwood, consists of two short novels, Mr. Norris
Changes Trains (published in the United States as The Last of
Mr. Norris) and Goodbye to Berlin.
The stories are both set in 1931
Berlin, as Hitler and the Nazis are coming into power. Isherwood
portrays Berlin's seedier side with characters who frequent beer
halls, vaudeville theaters and bath houses. Goodbye to Berlin
includes the character Sally Bowles, best known from the musical and
film Cabaret, the inspiration for which is rooted in
Isherwood's Berlin Stories and other works of his.
The
main character in Mr Norris Changes Trains is gay, and
the book was written during a time when being gay was a crime in many
parts of Europe. Christopher Isherwood was himself openly
homosexual, and he explored gay culture in his writing. He was
forced to write in such a way that references to gay culture and
homosexual relationships were so subtle that one had to be familiar
with the dialogue of that culture in order to understand them.

Identificación de primeras ediciones
Mr. Norris Changes Trains and Goodbye to Berlin were first
published as individual works by Hogarth Press, London, the founders
of which were Leonard and Virginia Woolf. Mr. Norris Changes
Trains was first printed in 1935, and Goodbye to Berlin
was printed in 1939.
In 1945, the two were published by New
Directions Publishing, New York, combined in a single volume entitled
The Berlin Stories. They are
now almost always published in a single volume.
