Chapter 15 Summary: “Davina”

Content Warning: This section of the guide includes discussion of death, child death, and mental illness.

Davina loves meeting Hannah, finding her funny and smart. She and Hannah discuss literature on the topic of love, and Davina finds out that Hannah sees herself as overweight. Davina notes that Hannah appears drained rather than overweight, but she doesn’t press the issue. Davina also notices that she can laugh with Hannah and that Hannah doesn’t treat her differently because of how she looks. When the topic of Hannah’s migraines comes up, Davina suggests that Hannah swim upstream in the river. She knows that the cold water and exertion can be beneficial for headaches. Hannah thinks that the idea is wild at first but agrees to try it. When she returns, she feels totally rejuvenated. Davina urges Hannah to swim in the river every day and take the tincture daily.

Chapter 16 Summary: “Penelope”

In the morning, Penelope wakes up and decides that she wants to meet Davina properly. She wakes up Hannah and convinces her to take her to visit Davina. Hannah leads Penelope through the woods to the cabin, holding her hand all the while.
