Background
The story of Vanity Fair is based on the upper class of Britain in the early 19th century. At that time, in the era of vigorous development of capitalist economy, merchants oppressed and exploited the workers at the bottom of the society. The people at the bottom of the society had a more difficult life, while the businessmen at the top of the society were richer, which formed a sharp contrast. In this reality, people pursue fame and wealth, power and status, and even lose themselves.
As he tells the story, the author interjects commentary from time to time, turning himself into appreciator of the passage, not its creator, and sharing the story with the reader.

Profession Writer (critical realism)
Thackeray (1811-1863), an outstanding critical realism writer in the 19th century in England. He is as famous as Dickens. He was sent back to England to study at the age of 6. He inherited his father's legacy when he was an adult, but he soon ran out of money and had to earn his living. He studied painting first, then writing, and then he wrote for the press, and published essays, travel notes, and short stories.
Vanity fair is a flashy world, everywhere filled with dust, blind people’s eyes.
People always love tofind a beautiful pos ition for themselves in Vanityfair, to show
off their own, so with the help of external fo rces they get into the upper society, forget the sincere and love. Money and power have
become their only pursuit, people’s heart can never be satisfied.
