William Thackeray   

résumé

Book Description
The text used in this Norton Critical Edition is the edition published by Garland Press (1989). The text is accompanied by: excerpts from Thackeray's letters and reviews; contemporary reviews; contextual documentation and historical accounts; and 10 critical essays from the last 90 years.
A classic, set during the Napoleonic wars, giving a satiricl picture of a worldly society and revolving around the exploits of two women from very different backgrounds.
From AudioFile
The incomparable Miriam Margolyes applies her story-telling and histrionic gifts to this classic satire of two young English women, one bad but clever and the other good but stupid, who come to no good during the Napoleonic Wars. The abridgers have cut a bit too much at the expense of the characterizations. Although sounding somewhat forced, Margolyes, as always, gives an excellent performance. Y.R.
