Аннотация: When Becky Sharp and Amelia Sedley leave school,
their feet are set on very different paths. Kind, foolish Amelia
returns to her comfortable home and wealthy family, to await a
suitable marriage, while Becky must look out for herself, earning
her own living in a hard world. But Becky is neither kind nor
foolish, and with her quick brain and keen eye for a chance, her
fortunes soon rise, while Amelia's fall. Greed, ambition, loyalty,
folly, wisdom . . . Thackeray's famous novel gives us a witty and
satirical picture of English society during the Napoleonic
wars.
