The scandalously outspoken Miss Brodie makes big waves in the conservative Scottish school, preaching the value of art, passion, and daring. While her bold values inspire an almost cult-like reverence in her young proteÌgeÌes, her politics, rivalries, and frank sensuality lead ultimately to her downfall. Told from the unsympathetic perspective of one of Miss Brodie's students, the novel explores themes of innocence and betrayal and the tension between cold rationality and unchecked emotionalism. 650 $a Audiobooks. 650 $a Bildungsromans. 650 $a Girls $x Fiction. 650 $a Psychological fiction. 650 $a Scotland $x Fiction. 650 $a Teacher-student relationships $x Fiction. 650 $a Women teachers $x Fiction. 700 $a May, Nadia. 856 $u http://wilbor.lib.overdrive.com/ContentDetails.htm?ID=DB7F9236-990F-4610-A483-9B8A6C380297 $3 URL 941 $a 2 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20110902011050.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20101023011151.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1008D3B6DE6B11DF9C83A1F56AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
