Summary

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 17-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'.
