First published in 1934, Goodbye to Berlin has been popularized on
stage and screen by Julie Harris in I Am a Camera and Liza Minelli
in Cabaret. Isherwood magnificently captures 1931 Berlin: charming,
with its avenues and cafes; marvelously grotesque, with its
nightlife and dreamers; dangerous, with its vice and intrigue;
powerful and seedy, with its mobs and millionaires this was the
period when Hitler was beginning his move to power. Goodbye to
Berlin is inhabited by a wealth of characters: the unforgettable
and divinely decadent Sally Bowles; plump Frau]lein Schroeder, who
considers reducing her Bu]steto relieve her heart palpitations;
Peter and Otto, a gay couple struggling to come to terms with their
relationship; and the distinguished and doomed Jewish family, the
Landauers."
