“I loved this novel… expect gay nightclubs, changing friendships, a myriad of love affairs and people prepared to do anything… all amid the glamour of Berlin, beautifully described. Tales of the City in the Weimar Republic.”
Sara Sheridan, Novelist
on The Landlady
“I have been thorougly enjoying this tale of an apartment building on Nollendorfstrasse in the 1920s.
It’s Isherwood’s sexy, tawdry world but presented with a hint of Maupin’s soapy brio.”
Paul Magrs, Novelist
on The Landlady
