" Not bad. Goodbye to Berlin was published in 1934, and all gay subtext is very low-level. I don't love Cabaret, but decided to read this after seeing, then reading, A Single Man. I like A Single Man better. It seems more introspective and better-written. It would be interesting to read one of his autobiographies (1938 or 1976) to get a more revealing account of his time in Berlin. If page 96 mentions a character named Peter, you have a misprint, and should look for an updated edition. "
