When Flannery finds herself enrolled in a class with remote, brilliant older woman, she is intimidated at first, but gradually becomes Anne Arden's student-Baudelaire, lipstick colors, or how to travel with a lover-Flannery proves an eager pupil, until one day learns more about Anne than she ever wanted to know.
