Sobre este artículo
Charles Scribner's Sons, 1903. Hardcover. Very Good. 1903-1904, 32 volumes complete, very good green cloth hardcovers with gilt to covers and spines and top page edges show light exposure toning to spines, light soil to spines and various areas of covers, bit of bumping at some corners, the occasional light internal split and a corner stain at top of frontispiece illustration of volume XV. Still an attractive set of the Kensington edition of Thackeray's works with his illustrations "..reproduced from the first impressions, both for clearness and to avoid the tampering of engravers with later plates, evident in many of the earlier sets.
Sinopsis
A prolific writer, made most famous by his writing Vanity Fair, William Makepeace Thackeraywas considered second only to Dickens when he was alive. A witty satirist, he mocked the Victorian era with a light hand and good humor: "O house, you are inhabited—0 knocker, you are knocked at—O undressed flunkey, sunning your lazy calves as you lean against the iron railings, you are paid—by Snobs."
