The stories revolve around themes of innocence, experience, and the complexities of relationships as they explore the lives of various characters in Paris and beyond. The titular character, Mademoiselle Miss, is introduced in the first story, leaving a profound impact on those around her, indicating her significance in the narratives to follow.

The narrator reflects on the profound sense of loss and the change in Paris that accompanies her absence, revealing how her allure and innocence have captivated her companions. As they cope with the void left by her, they reminisce about their initial misunderstandings of her character, hinting at the layers to her identity that will be further explored throughout the collection.
