A Single Man

Celebrated as a masterpiece from its first publication, A Single Man is the story of George Falconer, an English professor in suburban California left heartbroken after the death of his lover, Jim. With devastating clarity and humour, Christopher Isherwood shows George`s determination to carry on, evoking the unexpected pleasures of life as well as the soul`s ability to triumph over loneliness and alienation.
