Christopher Isherwood
The World in the Evening
Excellently written account of a man looking back on his life with all it's faults and how he'd mistreated others especially his romantic partners. In many ways quite intellectual although very readable and you feel as if you are getting under the skin of the narrator or at least as much as they realise themselves. The descriptive passages are great showing a mixed up mind which you never know whether it's quite unravelled by the ending. Well worth a read.
