I agree totally about the lackluster style of Every Man Dies Alone (I never knew it had another title!). I don't know whether to blame the style issues on Fallada or the translator, but I think that it would have really been a knockout book if the prose had done more for me...
I love Isherwood in general, but Berlin Stories is a must for anyone interested in Berlin as a city, or in the time period of the late '30s and early '40s.
