About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

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.

The literary exegesis at the end of the novel is interesting and makes this edition valuable.

The “Introduction” is a helpful addition

The book is so witty and entertaining and the characters so well drawn , it could have used a bit more editing but I enjoyed it immensely!

The narrator was excellent ! He did all voices without making them caricatures and has a beautiful speaking voice and diction !!
