Published in 1964, A Single Man was Isherwood's favorite of his nine novels. It's a moving and sincere portrait of one day in the life of George, a gay British man who is an English professor in Southern California, adjusting to life after the sudden death of his partner. Edmund White wrote, "Just as his Prater Violet is the best novel I know about the movies, Isherwood's A Single Man is one of the first and best novels of the modern gay liberation movement."
