Chapter Summaries & Analyses
This chapter, from Rose’s point of view, includes a recipe for lemon-grape cheesecake. Rose is confused when Annie visits and says that her mom is in Paris. Rose remembers the day in 1949 when Ted returned from Paris, after Rose had asked him to find out about her family, and told her the terrible news that everyone had died, including Jacob. She believed him. Ted was a wonderful husband to her and a father to Josephine, and Rose had cared for him. She met other survivors in New York who told her also that Jacob had died. Rose then agreed to move to Cape Cod to focus on what family she had left. She feels that it was her fault that her family died because she did not manage to warn them. When Ted told her that Jacob died, Rose felt that the world became very cold, and she died inside. She went to the roof that night and found the stars she had named after her family, but she did not see a star for Jacob.
