I was not aware of his connection with John Knowles. Vidal's early novel, <i>The City and the Pillar</i>, is much bleaker than Isherwood's but it is also a classic.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00561320676355168336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5231952.post-41557532229320536622011-01-10T05:35:00.197-06:002011-01-10T05:35:00.197-06:00Great review.

It's amazing how he made such an impact on the lives of two other writers.Darlyn (Your Move, Dickens)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00979296421309409564noreply@blogger.com
