'One of her funniest novels . . . Spark at her sharpest, her purest
and her most merciful' ALI SMITH In The Finishing School Muriel
Spark is once again at her biting, satirical best. On the edge of
Lake Geneva in Switzerland, a struggling would-be novelist and his
wife run a finishing school of questionable reputation to keep the
funds flowing. When a seventeen-year-old student's writing career
begins to show great promise, tensions run high. A keen portrait of
devouring regret, psychological unravelling and the glittering
promise of youth, The Finishing School is the perfect natural
partner to Muriel Spark's most famous novel The Prime of Miss Jean
Brodie.
