MY HEART'S IN THE HIGHLANDS

Jill Brown, an attractive midwestern college girl, finds her dream of a junior year in Europe a nightmare, until she abandons her provincial and callow attitudes. Love for a Scot, ostracization by her school mates, academic difficulty, all badly confuse the girl as she struggles through the rigors of Saint Andrew University, but she emerges from the ordeal, richer and happier by far. Written by a Scottish woman, My Heart's in the Highlands not only offers a rich account of European academic life, but takes a healthy therapeutic wallop at some of the less desirable aspects of the young American abroad.
