In Christopher Isherwood's original 1937 short story "Sally Bowles", the eponymous character expresses antisemitic sentiments. As a staunch anti-racist, Jean Ross was incensed that Isherwood depicted her fictional alter-ego Sally Bowles as supportive of "the attitudes which led to Dachau and Auschwitz". Scholars have noted the antisemitic remarks in "Sally Bowles" were a reflection of Isherwood's prejudices which the author regretted in the aftermath of the Holocaust. When the 1937 short story was later anthologized in both "Goodbye to Berlin" and "The Berlin Stories," Isherwood insisted that Sally's antisemitic remarks be deleted.
