Content:
Piazza takes a close look at the intensely personal world of Isherwood's nine novels, examining the anti-mythic elements at the foundation of this ironist's oeuvre: the revolt against his mother, the rejection of his hero-father, destroyed by the senseless heoism of the Great War, and Isherwood's homosexual rebellion against the heterosexual dictatorship of the state, the church, the law, and the press.
