"Vanity Fair" is like a time machine wrapped in wit. Thackeray brilliantly dissects the intricacies of British high society with keen observation and a sharp tongue. It's a substantial read, sure, but it's for anyone who enjoys diving deep into character studies and the follies of social stratification. With its blend of humor, irony, and moral scrutiny, it's a mirror into the human condition that still reflects our own times.
