![]() Vanity FairWilliam Makepeace ThackerayWilliam Makepeace Thackeray's Vanity Fair follows the efforts of two 19th-century English women to establish themselves in society. A clever and merciless social climber, Becky Sharp, claws her way to the top, while naïve Amelia stays blindly loyal to her self-centered husband and takes for granted her kind and steadfast friend, Dobbin. William Makepeace Thackery's satiric take on the desire for social and financial power exposes the weakness of human nature. Search this CliffsNote
