About the author

William Makepeace Thackeray

1811–1863

Best known for Vanity Fair, he wrote sharp, funny novels that expose ambition, snobbery, and the many little vanities of Victorian society. His stories still feel lively because their humor is matched by a clear-eyed understanding of human weakness.
