| Summary | "The Doctor's Dilemma" by Hesba Stretton is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story opens with a tumultuous inner conflict experienced by a young woman in London, who feels ensnared in a dire situation involving oppressive forces that seek to break her spirit. Her resolve leads her to a desperate escape from her confinement, setting the stage for a narrative that revolves around themes of resilience, identity, and the quest for safety. At the start of the book, the main character is introduced as she experiences acute inner turmoil, feeling trapped and on the verge of madness due to her circumstances. After a stormy day, she decides to make her daring escape, slipping out of her temporary prison and fleeing into the rain-soaked streets of London. Struggling through uncertainty, she finds a sympathetic figure in a sea captain named Tardif and decides to accompany him to the Channel Islands. This flight brings a mixture of fear and hope, as she leaves her past behind in search of a secure haven where she can rebuild her life. The opening portion vividly captures the protagonist's emotional struggle and her initial steps toward freedom, evoking a sense of urgency that propels the plot forward.
