"Ahead of its time in every sense of the word. Galsworthy lived with and wrote about these characters for forty years...an astounding accomplishment. If you want insight into the lives and minds of late Victorians, this is *the* book.

"Moore set the benchmark so high that the rest of us will never be able to live up to it. This is not my favorite of Moore's works, but it's undeniably brilliant.

read in January, 1999
G. said:
"Don't be fooled: this is not a safe little English novel written by a safe little English author. One of my favorite books. Underrated and misunderstood by Theoretically Smart People.

Vanity Fair (Paperback) by William Makepeace Thackeray |
my rating:
|

|
read in January, 2006
G. said:
"Most great English novels of the 20th century owe something to Thackeray. Vanity Fair is a milestone in western literature. Still as funny and readable as it was in 1848.
