具体描述

William Makepeace Thackeray's Vanity Fair depicts the anarchic anti-heroine Beky Sharpe cutting a swathe through the eligible young men of Europe, set against a lucid backdrop of war and international chaos. This Penguin Classics edition is edited with an introduction and notes by John Carey.

No one is better equipped in the struggle for wealth and worldly success than the alluring and ruthless Becky Sharp, who defies her impoverished background to clamber up the class ladder. Her sentimental companion Amelia Sedley, however, longs only for the caddish soldier George. As the two heroines make their way through the tawdry glamour of Regency society, battles - military and domestic - are fought, fortunes made and lost. The one steadfast and honourable figure in this corrupt world is William Dobbin, devoted to Amelia, bringing pathos and depth to Thackeray's gloriously satirical epic of love and social adventure. Set against the background of the Napoleonic wars, Thackeray's 'novel without a hero' is a lively satirical journey through English society, exposing greed, snobbery and pretension.

This edition follows the text of Thackeray's revised edition of 1853. John Carey's introduction identifies Vanity Fair as a landmark in the development of European Realism, and as a reflection of Thackeray's passionate love for another man's wife.

多年以后,我还会记得2011年这个春节。除了第一次到我们新房来的未来的丈母娘和小舅子、大姨子一家留下的印象外,还有这本厚达708页的书——《名利场》。 这本书我听说了很久,第一印象是喜欢这个书名。(我很相信,如今美国那本同名的时尚杂志恐怕就是根据这本书名来起的杂...

此书的英文版,是上年头就买了。冲着杨必的名气看了几页中文,觉得还可以,就买了英文版来读。结果中途多次读不下去,多次放下不想看,可是最后咬咬牙看完了。很少看小说看得那么纠结郁闷。 不少人对此书的赞誉很高,不过大部分都是看杨必的中文版。不得不说,的确翻译得不错...

一、 年青时读红楼梦,会想,做老婆的话,林黛玉好,还是薛宝钗好。 当时不理解曹雪芹。我的心里是偏向宝钗的。 宝钗多好呀,漂亮、聪明、脾气好,群众基础也好。 黛玉有什么好的,身体不好,干不了家务,脾气又坏,嘴巴尖酸,还动不动就哭。我最讨厌爱哭的女生了。 年青的时候...
