Ladies Whose Bright Eyes: A Romance

by Ford Madox Ford

In Ford Madox Ford's 'Ladies Whose Bright Eyes,' Mr. Sorrell, after a train accident, finds himself inexplicably transported to the medieval period. Mistaken for a Greek slave renowned for performing miracles, Sorrell is thrust into a world of unfamiliar customs and beliefs. As he acclimates to this foreign environment, he develops feelings for a woman, deepening his connection to this time and fostering a sense of belonging. However, the question of whether he can remain in the past, a question of both choice and circumstance, lingers over his burgeoning love and newfound life.
