THE OFFICIAL COMPANION TO THE ITV SERIES William Thackeray's Vanity
Fair was first published in the 1840s, but its power to entertain
and provoke debate remains as strong as ever. The tales of
charismatic, shrewd, and amoral Becky Sharp's journey from Miss
Pinkerton's academy for young ladies to a wider world in which
wealth and status is valued above all else is arguably as relevant
today as it was nearly 200 years ago: Becky and her equally flawed
friends and acquaintances are familiar to us all. This, the
official companion to the ITV series contains everything a fan
could want to know about the story. It explores the characters
Thackeray so memorably created and the society they inhabited,
along with fascinating insights about the period. And it offers
location guides, behind the scenes details, and interviews with the
cast, alongside beautiful illustrations and set photography. Taking
readers from London society to the battlefields of Waterloo, the
book gets right to the heart of one of the greatest novels ever
written.
