The Young Man on the Staircase

Ah, I feel much better now: done with My Queer War, a hundred pages into Christopher and His Kind.Maybe it's unfair to compare the two, since Isherwood was one of the great English prose writers of the twentieth century. I last read (or reread) Christopher and His Kind a quarter century ago, and I worried just a little that it wouldn't work for me now, but I'm getting enormous pleasure from it.
