Summary "Ayala's Angel" by Anthony Trollope is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the lives of two sisters, Ayala and Lucy Dormer, who find themselves penniless after the death of their father, an artist. While Ayala is taken in by their wealthy relatives, Lady Tringle and Sir Thomas, Lucy is left to live with their frugal uncle, Reginald Dosett. The narrative explores themes of class difference, family dynamics, and the contrasting fates of the sisters as they navigate their new lives and relationships. The opening of the novel introduces us to the tragic circumstances surrounding Ayala and Lucy's transition from a life of relative comfort to one of division and hardship. Upon the death of their father, Ayala is chosen to live with their affluent relatives, while Lucy is sent to the more modest home of Uncle Reginald. As they grapple with their new realities, Lucy acknowledges the stark disparity between their situations, realizing that Ayala will enjoy the luxuries of wealth and social standing, while she must contend with poverty and an uncaring aunt. The emotional depth of their bond is underscored as both sisters confront the painful separation, with Lucy displaying selflessness in the face of her own misfortune.
