When Becky Sharp and Amelia Sedley leave school, their feet are set on very different paths. Kind, foolish Amelia returns to her comfortable home and wealthy family, to await a suitable marriage, while Becky must look out for herself, earning her own living in a hard world. But Becky is neither kind nor foolish, and with her quick brain and keen eye for a chance, her fortunes soon rise, while Amelia's fall.  Greed, ambition, loyalty, folly, wisdom ...Thackeray's famous novel gives us a witty and satirical picture of English society during the Napoleonic wars.

En el recinto de la Feria se erige suntuoso uno de los mejores retratos de la sociedad inglesa de principios del siglo XIX, cuyo director de escena de mirada desencantada no es otro que William M. Thackeray, maestro en el arte de crear personajes femeninos. Así, pronto veremos pisar el escenario a dos mujeres inolvidables: la dulce y apocada Amelia Sedley y la inteligente y ambiciosa Becky Sharp cobran vida en un juego fascinante, lleno de trampas y de emoción, en una obra magistral de la literatura de todos los tiempos. La clásica traducción que en su día realizara Alfonso Nadal viene precedida en la presente edición por un esclarecedor estudio introductorio. Lo firma John Carey, catedrático emérito de literatura inglesa en la Universidad de Oxford y crítico literario de renombre indiscutible. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION 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, however, longs only for 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 Dobbin with his devotion to Amelia, bringing pathos and depth to Thackeray's gloriously satirical epic of love and social adventure.
