This novel features probably the greatest anti-heroine in English literature, Becky Sharp, and a plot that revolves around class, social climbing and a financial crisis that will seem eerily familiar to modern readers.Vanity Fair has it all. It both speaks of its time, and speaks of all times.
这部小说的主角或许就是英国文学史上最知名的非正统派女主角——贝奇•夏普,小说的情节围绕阶级、社会、跻身上流社会以及现代读者听来又熟悉又害怕的金融危机。《名利场》这些要素全都具备, 讲述那个年代,也讲述着每一个年代。

8. David Copperfield (Charles Dickens, 1850)
8. 查尔斯•狄更斯《大卫•科波菲尔》,1850年出版
David Copperfield is populated by some of the most vivid characters ever created. They are as much a part of readers' world, and their way of thinking about the world, as people they have actually met.
