The Glass Castle

10. In Section 19, Dad says to Jeannette, “[T]here are times when I think you’re the only one around who still has faith in me....I don’t know what I’d do if you ever lost it.” How is this statement an example of foreshadowing?

Part II: The Desert, Sections 17-19 (p. 67-80)

This comment foreshadows Jeannette's eventual loss of faith. The break in their relationship is officially severed when Rex whips her for telling him that he isn't fulfilling his parental responsibilities.
