''Cluny Brown'' is a humorous coming of age novel by Margery Sharp, first published in the United States of America by Little, Brown & Company in August 1944. The story was adapted into a 1946 film made by Twentieth Century-Fox, directed and produced by Ernst Lubitsch.
==Plot Summary==
The story follows the escapades of a plumber's niece, Cluny Brown, who is twenty years old in England in 1938. Cluny has high spirits and a constant desire for expansion of experience that leads the more staid members of her community to question whether she knows her place. As a consequence of one final London based excursion of discovery outside the bounds of what Cluny's mentors consider proper, she is sent off into good service with a charming country residence known as Friars Carmel to be a Tall Parlour Maid. The coincidental simultaneous arrivals of the young son and heir of the house, a mysterious Polish professor, and a beautiful socialite add complexity to this adventurous tale of a young woman following her dreams and finding her personal freedom in the tumultuous early 20th century.
