Product Details
W. M. Thackeray's satirical classic about a woman determined to make her way in society - at any cost. Brilliant anti-heroine Becky Sharp will do anything to climb to societys loftiest heights and couldnt be more different from her rich, sweet-natured schoolmate, Amelia Sedley. Their parallel lives are marked by love, lust, marriage, fortune and loss, in all their different guises, as they navigate the corrupt circus of upper-class Regency England.
Hailed as a literary masterpiece upon first publication,Vanity Fairhas never waned in popularity and remains a highly entertaining satire of early nineteenth century high society. This gorgeous edition includes an afterword by the prizewinning author and critic, Henry Hitchings.
