Although Isherwood resumed his career as a writer, the novels he produced while living in the USA, including A Single Man, reflected his newfound spiritual interests and blazed a trail for the gay liberation movement.In this new biography, Jake Poller takes a holistic approach to Isherwood, exploring his life and innovative autofiction and expertly unpacking Vedanta philosophy, tracing its influence in Isherwood's work.
