Mr. Beebe
A British woman staying at the Pension Bertolini, who somewhat arrogantly thinks that she is finding the “real” Italy in contrast to naïve tourists.

In the novel is a romantic scene that is obviously based on George and Lucy’s kiss outside of Florence, and this causes some trouble when Cecil reads this scene aloud to Lucy and George.
