Down There on a Visit

Novel by 克里斯多福·伊舍伍

Blurb

Down There on a Visit is the 1962 novel from English author Christopher Isherwood.
Through his political advocacy and the literary success of his friends, Auden and Spender, Christopher Isherwood became something of a literary rock star, immersing himself in sexual experimentation, alcohol, and raucous company across Europe and North America. The title refers to a verbal jibe fired at Isherwood's eponymous protagonist by another character, Paul. "You know, you really are a tourist, to your bones" laughs Paul. "I bet you're always sending post cards with 'Down here on a visit' on them. That's the story of your life."
