In l939, on the eve of the Second World War, Gay British writers Christopher Isherwood and W. H. Auden left England for America. During this dreary winter voyage Isherwood relives incidents from his life. In the isolation and limbo of the ocean, he feels alienated from his life in Europe and unsure what the future in America may hold for him. He is writing a book called "The Lost" which is to reflect the lives of the emotionally bankrupt folk, the lost generation which has lost its way - the victims of the Nazis, the survivors of the Spanish Civil War, the desperate and the confused. On this journey he feels he has joined their ranks.
