Book Friends ForeverWaiting on the Moon by Peter Wolf (Audiobook Excerpt)On sale March 11th, 2025
In the tradition of classic collections of observations and musings such as Christopher Isherwood’s I Am a Camera and Truman Capote’s The Dogs Bark, Waiting on the Moon is a treasure trove of vignettes from a legendary musical figure whose career spans more than six decades and is still going strong.
Peter Wolf grew up in the Bronx, a child of “fellow travelers” whose artistic inclinations influenced both his love of music and his initial desire to become a painter. Stories of his loving and sometimes eccentric parents complement scenes depicting a very young Bob Dyla...2025-03-1103 min
Shelf LifeBiographer Katherine Bucknell on Christopher Isherwood's Odyssey from Weimar Berlin to CaliforniaSend us a textWhat can we learn from Weimar Germany and its rapid unraveling in the 1930s? Lately that question has gained more urgency as the US turns away from the trans-Atlantic alliance that has underpinned European security for the past 80 years. For Katherine Bucknell, no writer was better placed than Christopher Isherwood for understanding the speed with which a country can slide into autocracy. It was his book Goodbye to Berlin that became the basis for the musical, Cabaret. Without Isherwood, no Sally Bowles. But the author’s legacy stretches far beyond Berlin, encompassing gay li...2025-03-0452 min

My Daily Thread114. Ignorance, my mental affliction.In our exploration of Yoga Sutra 1:24, we turn to Christopher Isherwood and Swami Prabhavananda's book How to Know God for a deeper understanding of this verse. According to their interpretation, Ishwara is not influenced by the ignorance that typically clouds human perception. This distinction sets Ishwara apart as a pure, untainted consciousness unaffected by the afflictions that bind us, such as egoism and desire. One of the critical insights from Isherwood and Prabhavananda's text is the notion that 'devotion to a personal ideal of God brings with it a natural inclination to humility and service.'

Der Einzelgänger ist ein Kabinettstück und eine der geistreichsten Gesellschaftskritiken, die auch mehr als 40 Jahre nach ihrem Erscheinen nichts von ihrer bitteren Wahrheit eingebüßt hat. Isherwood beschreibt einen Arbeitstag von George, der englische Literatur an einer amerikanischen Universität unterrichtet. George hat erst vor kurzem seinen langjährigen Lebensgefährten Jim verloren und immer wieder gehen seine Gedanken zu ihm, zu der gemeinsamen Zeit und zu den gemeinsamen alltäglichen Verrichtungen.

As well as his personal life, he addressed suffering and confusion, and the moral issues that affected the wider public in the 1930s and tried to unpick what was going wrong in society and to understand those times. He witnessed the rise of totalitarianism in the austerity of that decade, travelling through Germany to Berlin, seeing Spain in the Civil War and China during its wars with Japan, often collaborating with Christopher Isherwood.

The city of Berlin was the Weimar Republic’s hub, transforming itself into a multicultural melting pot where rules could be bent and new ways of being were more accepted. However, people questioned this modern way of living and were sceptical of the rise of technology and a more relaxed approach to gender norms. Cabaret, theatre and film all contributed to a critique of society while the rise of Fascism inevitably marched forward. Observers like writer Christopher Isherwood recorded this remarkable period in his Berlin novels, including Goodbye to Be...2019-06-0700 min

Suite (212)Politics and the English Language: The life and legacy of George OrwellSince his untimely death in January 1950, aged 46, George Orwell has been turned into a secular saint, with his Cold War-era novels Animal Farm and Nineteen Eighty-Four making Orwell - a democratic socialist - a hero to anti-communists across the world, but especially in England. This week, Juliet talks to critic Fatema Ahmed and writer Owen Hatherley about how and why Orwell became so revered, whether this reverence is useful, and how his writing might be reclaimed or reassessed by the contemporary British left.
