Miss Brill

That evening ends with her sudden realization that she is old and lonely, a realization brought to her by a conversation she overhears a comment on her unwelcome presence in their vicinity. | She listens to the band playing and enjoys contemplating the world as a great stage upon which actors perform. | Miss Brill is a regular visitor on Sundays to the Jardins Publiques (the Public Gardens) of a small French suburb. | Miss Brill is sad and depressed as she returns home. | One Sunday Miss Brill puts on her fur and goes to the Public Gardens as usual.
