Description

"Vanity Fair", published in serial parts in 1847-8, made William Makepeace Thackeray famous 'all but at the top of the tree', he told his mother, 'and having a great fight up there with Dickens'. This title shows that Thackeray was a complex man, acutely sensitive to criticism and fearful of the publicity that accompanied his passage through life.
