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.

Vanity Fair is a story of two heroines--one humber, the other scheming and social climbing--who meet inboarding school and embark on markedly different lives. Amid the swirl of London's posh ballrooms and affairs of love and war, their fortunes rise and fall. Through it all, Thackeray lampoons the shallow values of his society, reserving the most pointed barbs for the upper crust. What results is a prescient look at the dogged pursuit of wealth and status--and the need for humility.

内容简介

A deliciously satirical attack on a money-mad society, Vanity Fair, which first appeared in 1847, is an immensely moral novel, and an immensely witty one. Called in its subtitle "A Novel Without a Hero," Vanity Fair has instead two heroines: the faithful, loyal Amelia Sedley and the beautiful and scheming social climber Becky Sharp. It also engages a huge cast of wonderful supporting characters as the novel spins from Miss Pinkerton's academy for young ladies to affairs of love and war on the Continent to liaisons in the dazzling ballrooms of London. Thackeray's forte is the bon mot and it is amply exercised in a novel filled with memorably wicked lines. Lengthy and leisurely in pace, the novel follows the adventures of Becky and Amelia as their fortunes rise and fall, creating a tale of both picaresque and risqué. Thackery mercilessly skewers his society, especially the upper class, poking fun at their shallow values and pointedly jabbing at their hypocritical "morals." His weapons, however, are not fire and brimstone but an unerring eye for the absurd and a genius for observation of the foibles of his age. An enduring classic, this great novel is a brilliant study in duplicity and hypocrisy…and a mirror with which to view our own times.

　　　　有时候我也在怀疑孙少平倒底是不是关系一族，毕竟他的工人资格也是靠通过别人介绍的，也有虹霞的全力帮助，但是仔细一起，其实不是，这全是他自己争取来的，如果他没有那么好的人品，如果他没有那么朴实那么善良的心灵，曹书记会记得他吗？会想把女作暗许于他吗？会在有招工机会的时候急急地通知他吗？这一切都是他自己赢来的，所以不管在哪人品永远第一，一个不会做人的人同样也不能漂亮的完成工作的。这也体现了人脉的力量。) 　是的.他是在社会的最底层挣扎.为了几个钱而受尽折磨.但他已不仅仅将此看作是谋生活命——职业的高贵与低贱.不能说明一个人生活的价值.恰恰相反.他现在倒很”热爱”自己的苦难.通过一段血火般的洗礼.他相信.自己历尽千辛万苦而酿造出的生活之蜜,肯定比轻而易举拿来的更有滋味——他自嘲地把自己的这种认识叫做”关于苦难的学说….. 有文化.但没有幸运地进入大学或参加工作.因此似乎没有充分的条件直接参与到目前社会发展的主潮之中.而另一方面,他们又不甘心把自己局限在狭小的生活天地里.因此他们往往带着一种悲壮的激情.在一条最为艰难的道路上进行人生的搏斗.
