| It’s been a while since I read the stories but I remember “Mr. Norris Changes Trains” was the one more focused on homosexual culture in Berlin. There were gay characters in the “Goodbye” story but the narrator as I remember it is like a camera. I think his disgust does grow with what he sees and he participates in an anti nazi rally and gets badly beaten towards the end. But I don’t remember him self identifying as homosexual as Isherwood does in other books. Maybe I am forgetting… I think I am mixing it up. The character of the wealthy aristocrat with his male physical culture retreat at his villa is in the “Goodbye” story… |
