About this product

Product Information

When A Single Man was originally published, it shocked many by its frank, sympathetic, and moving portrayal of a gay man in midlife. George, the protagonist, is adjusting to life on his own after the sudden death of his partner, and determines to persist in the routines of his daily life; the course of A Single Man spans twenty-four hours in an ordinary day. An Englishman and a professor living in suburban Southern California, he is an outsider in every way, and his internal reflections and interactions with others reveal a man who loves being alive despite everyday injustices and loneliness. Wry, suddenly manic, constantly funny, surprisingly sad, this novel catches the texture of life itself.

CD's are always a little tricky packing up and shipping out. I have learned a lot over the years and feel I have come up with a very reliable and cost-effective way of doing so. Thank you very much for noticing ;) and I really appreciate the feedback it is very reaffirming. Take care and have a great weekend.

  • A Single Man

    This book isn't cookie-cutter. It talks about a homosexual college professor who suffers from depression. It doesn't talk down or heavy hand its reader. Plus, the college professor is shown over the course of the book to have layers. Underrated gem.

  • A Single Man By Christopher Isherwood

    Great novel about a gay professor who is dealing with the death of his longtime partner. A movie starring Colin Firth, Julianne Moore & Mathew Goode is currently being produced by Tom Ford of Christopher Isherwood's 1964 novel. Thoroughly enjoyed reading this on the beach while on vacation.
