Isherwood writes with that dry and perceptive wit that British authors so excel at, and his keen eye for human foibles and neuroses is propped up by descriptive language of a truly cinematic vividness. A fatalist fondness permeates these vignettes, bringing to life a colorful cast of philosophical Jews, scandalous club singers and threadbare gigolos.
