"An intimate portrait of the life of a beautiful if neurotic mind… streaked with gossip, flinty observations, great good humor and-despite Isherwood's fundamental discretion-plenty of frank talk." - Dwight Garner, New York Times "These diaries are, in their core, a love story…thanks to [them], we bear witness to it all-and are all the richer for it." - New York Journal of Books "A good writer…intensely self-aware…a fascinating companion…THE SIXTIES [is] accessible to everyone…a true piece of social history." - Edmund White, New York Times Book Review "The diary entries in The Sixties are a mix of quotidian detail, social observation, moody reverie, gossip and self-rebuke." - Wall Street Journal "Gossipy, funny, wide-ranging, and revealing…[Isherwood] comes across as approachable, aware, and passionately interested." - Publishers Weekly
