"Prime of Miss Jean Brodie", not autobiography.
 
And why do I, in my distant memory, connect Brodie with "Daddy  Longlegs"?

I had forgotten entirely the existence of "The Autobiography of Jean  Brodie".
 
I now recall reading it over and over in high school but can't for the life  
of me remember anything about it. 
 
I'll be ordering a copy as soon as I send this mail.  
 
I wonder if I will love it now or if I will relegate it to the heap of  works 
I inexplicably loved in high school but which appeal not at all to me  now.
