"As the manager of the Performance sits before the curtain on the boards and looks into the Fair, a feeling of profound melancholy comes over him in his survey of the bustling place. There is a great quantity of eating and drinking, making love and jilting, laughing and the contrary, smoking, cheating, fighting, dancing and fiddling; there are bullies pushing about, bucks ogling the women, knaves picking pockets, policemen on the look-out, quacks (OTHER quacks, plague take them!) bawling in front of their booths, and yokels looking up at the tinselled dancers and poor old rouged tumblers, while the light-fingered folk are operating upon their pockets behind. Yes, this is VANITY FAIR; not a moral place certainly; nor a merry one, though very noisy."

Amelia Sedley et Becky Sharp sont deux amies qui suivent l'enseignement d'un pensionnat pour jeunes filles. La première est issue d'une famille bourgeoise fortunée, est timide, douce et ne connaît rien de la vie. La seconde a perdu ses parents ; elle est intelligente, charmante et fait tout pour cacher ses origines modestes et suspectes aux yeux de la bonne société londonienne. À la fin de leur scolarité, Amélia invite Becky à passer quelques semaines chez ses parents. Becky y fait la connaissance de Joseph " Joe " Sedley, le frère d'Amélia, d'ordinaire receveur d'impôts en Inde, et de retour en Angleterre. " La Foire aux vanités " de William Makepeace Thackeray dépeint la société anglaise de la première moitié du XIXe siècle et la critique de façon mordante.
