Miss Harriet by Guy de Maupassant
"Miss Harriet" by Guy de Maupassant is a short story published in 1883. A young painter lodging at a Norman countryside inn encounters Miss Harriet, an eccentric English spinster who walks alone and watches the sea at sunset. As he paints the landscape, she begins accompanying him, admiring his work. The painter gradually perceives a troubling change in her behavior, sensing an internal struggle he doesn't fully understand. What begins as an
unusual friendship takes an unexpected turn when hidden feelings surface in this poignant tale of unrequited passion. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
