Title A name given to the resource The Cosy Corner Description An account of the resource Described by Happy In Berlin?, a repository for English writer's experiences of 1920s Berlin, as a "shabby gay bar in the working class district of Kreuzberg", the Cosy Corner was a frequent meeting place for downtrodden revolutionaries. However, it was also frequented by more privileged individuals, looking for cheap escapism by way of the underpaid male prostitutes working there. These figures included writers W. H. Auden and Christopher Isherwood - the latter of whom would go on to fictionalize the Cosy Corner as the 'Alexander Casino' in his magnum opus, Goodbye to Berlin. Isherwood would later retract his endorsement of this particular brand of hedonism, referring to his frequent use of the Cosy Corner's prostitutes - and his benefiting from impoverished Berlin queers as a whole - as a 'colonial situation'.
