Summary "Which? Or, Between Two Women" by Ernest Daudet is a novel written in the late 19th century. This captivating romantic narrative revolves around the tumultuous lives of Tiepoletta, a young gypsy mother, and Dolores, the child she flees to save, as they become intertwined with the noble family of de Chamondrin in the midst of a politically charged Paris. The story sets up a double love triangle, which complicates the emotional landscape as Dolores finds herself caught between rival affections and the expectations of her new family. At the start of the novel, the opening chapters introduce us to Tiepoletta, who desperately escapes from her gypsy clan to protect her newborn daughter, Dolores. Tiepoletta faces significant struggle and hardship as she attempts to find refuge, eventually collapsing at the doors of the Château de Chamondrin. As she is taken in by the Marquis and his household, her tragic plight leads to her untimely death, leaving Dolores an orphan in a new world. The narrative richly develops the dynamics within the Château, especially as Dolores grows up amidst the nobles, highlighting themes of identity, love, and the societal expectations placed upon them, setting the stage for the conflict to unfold.
