Sometimes the most fruitful way to begin a discussion about a text is to consider your first impression of it. As you begin reading this short story, tell us your first impression of "The Devil's Spectacles."

I was excited about reading this short story after a few pages because of the emphasis that Collins places on the artic. What a Romantic-period motif a la Mary Shelley! The polar exploration and cannibalism was really engaging. The age of arctic exploration seems to be given new life in this tale, and I am looking forward to how it pans out!
