Isherwood’s fiction often verged on autobiography, and of this memoir, first published in 1938, he said, ‘Read it as a novel.’ A witty, lightly dramatized account of his schooldays, expulsion from Cambridge and precarious jobs as a tutor and secretary to a string quartet, it contains thinly veiled portraits of his contemporaries Auden and Spender, creating a lively satirical portrait of literary England between the wars.
