Summary
She's in Normandy, and Rosenberg's on the French Riviera. She quotes a poem by [Gerard de] Nerval describing a woman at the window of a house in Normandy but says that living in one is not as charming. Rose Descat has lent her her home. She's enjoying her stay, relaxing with three dogs. She continues talking about how beautiful and peaceful Normandy is.
