Known for his sharp satire, Thackeray's works offer a critical view of 19th-century English society, focusing on themes of hypocrisy, marriage, and social ambition. His notable characters, such as Becky Sharp from Vanity Fair, embody the roguish spirit he often admired. Thackeray's career began with the satirical sketches in The Yellowplush Papers, leading to significant novels like Catherine, The History of Pendennis, and The Newcomes. His unique style blends humor with a keen observation of societal flaws, making his writing both entertaining and thought-provoking.
