Description

One of the BBC”s ”100 Novels That Shaped Our World”

”A sublimely funny book … it is a book to be read by all … unforgettable and universal” Candia McWilliam

Romantic, heroic, comic and tragic, unconventional schoolmistress Jean Brodie has become an iconic figure in post-war fiction. Her glamour, unconventional ideas and manipulative charm hold dangerous sway over her girls at the Marcia Blaine Academy – ”the crème de la crème” – who become the Brodie ”set”, introduced to a privileged world of adult games that they will never forget. Muriel Spark”s The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie was adapted into a successful stage play, and later a film directed by Ronald Neame and starring Maggie Smith.
