Description

Deliciously droll, this wicked satire lampoons England's upper crust and their single-minded pursuit of riches. Reflecting his own family's tumultuous history, Thackeray's sprawling tale follows the ebbs and flows of two classic literary heroines: rich Becky, poor Amelia. A leisurely read, richly flavored with period detail, from Waterloo to the struggles of the Anglo-Indian society.

Author Biography:

In his day, William Makepeace Thackeray (1811-63) enjoyed a popularity equivalent to that of Charles Dickens. A contributor to Punch and an editor of the Cornhill Magazine, Thackeray possessed an acerbic wit that he directed chiefly at middle-class Victorian morality. Vanity Fair is his best-known work; his other books include The Luck of Barry Lyndon and The History of Henry Esmond, Esq.
