Isherwood magnificently captures 1931 Berlin: charming, with its avenues and cafés; marvelously grotesque, with its nightlife and dreamers; dangerous, with its vice and intrigue.

World War II & Holocaust Editorial Review
Goodbye to Berlin is a fascinating and important book that provides a first-hand look at how the Nazi Party slowly engulphed pre-Nazi Germany. It is beautifully written and highly recommended for anyone interested in the political landscape of the 21st century. The book is a collection of scraps from a larger work that the author abandoned, which makes it feel disengaged and floating through life in a big city, even in turbulent times. The book is the basis for the play "Cabaret", but there is little in common between the book and the play. The chapter on Sally Bowles is fantastic and clearly demonstrates how well the actor studied her part. The book has many inklings of the oncoming National Socialism and antisemitism that give the book a haunting look into what was soon to come to Germany. Isherwood has a splendid knack for describing characters both through physical description and unique voices. He is a master observer of those he encountered without covering up their flaws and quirks.
