Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Realizing she is no longer in 2023, June begins walking and finds the farmhouse, restored to its original state, and a man whose voice she recognizes from her “episodes.” He asks what she’s doing there and then is surprised to realize they haven’t met. He ushers her inside, worried someone has seen her. He departs, telling her to stay in the house. She feels compelled to enter a bedroom that contains women’s clothes. She finds a photograph of the man with his arms around a woman: her.
June runs from the house. The man—who tells her his name is Eamon Stone—knows her, though she doesn’t know him yet. He finds her quickly, exhorting her to come back to the house before she’s seen. A police deputy sees them, and Eamon attempts to smooth things over. He says June has just come back from visiting her mother, who is doing better. Eamon tells June they met five years ago and are married but that she disappeared a year earlier. June is relieved when Eamon takes her to the flower farm and they meet Esther Farrow, her great-great-grandmother. June sees a young girl but cannot “bring herself to ask who she [is]” (108)—she is certain she doesn’t want to know.
