The Red Shoes (5) [The Red Shoes]
The Red Shoes (5)
They fitted the child and the old woman bought them.
Had she known that they were red, she wouldn't have because it was not proper to wear red shoes when you were being confirmed. But her eyesight was failing ー poor woman ! ー and she had not seen the colour.
Everyone in the church looked at Karen's feet, as she walked towards the altar.
On the walls of the church hung paintings of the former ministers and their wives who were buried there ; they were portrayed wearing black with white ruffs arounf their necks.
Karen felt that even they were staring at her red shoes.
