Overview
āIntimate and compulsively readable.ā āAlfred Corn, The Nation
The second volume of acclaimed author Christopher Isherwoodās diaries takes readers to the heart of the 1960s, the decade in which Isherwoodās semiautobiographical novel Goodbye to Berlin would be adapted into the Tony Award-winning musical Cabaret. Against a background of cultural paradigm shifts including the advent of space travel, pop art, and mod fashion, and seminal events like the Kennedy/Nixon election, the Marianne Faithfull/Mick Jagger romance, the rise of the Hippie movement, and the riotous explosion of Americaās inner cities, The Sixties follows Isherwoodās friendships with creative powerhouses such as Francis Bacon, David Hockney, Richard Burton, and Gore Vidal, and continues the saga of his great romance with portraitist Don Bachardy.
