Miss Jean Brodie is a schoolmistress with advanced ideas not only about the education of her charges, but also of her own place in the scheme of things in which she finds herself. This book tells the story of those anxious pre-war years when Miss Brodie is in her prime and the group of her favorite pupils, "the Brodie Set" are growing up in a world which contains Hitler as well as love.
