Description
"Glasses" by Henry James
An anonymous narrator visits Folkestone and sees a young woman with an astonishingly beautiful face. From a friend, the widowed Mrs. Meldrum who has to wear disfiguring glasses, he learns that she is Flora Saunt, an orphan. She has an admirer in Lord Iffield, heir to a country estate but not very bright. Another admirer, also well off, is Geoffrey Dawling, who is intelligent and sympathetic but not good-looking. Flora is about to make a society marriage. That is, until her fiancé discovers that, being virtually blind, she needs thick glasses which ruin her looks.
