Written by the novelist Anthony Trollope who had been a friend of William Makepeace Thackeray, this classic biography surveys the life and works of the author of Vanity Fair.
It remains a useful picture of an author still popular today, and offers insights into Victorian assumptions about novel writing, as well as providing an account of Thackeray's life and career that benefits from Trollope's personal knowledge of his subject.
A prolific author of both fiction and non-fiction, Trollope is best remembered today for his 'social comedy' novels.
In this portrait of Thackeray, he addresses what he describes as every reader's desire to know not only the works, but also the genius behind them, and Thackeray’s “instinctive perception of human varieties.”
