Publisher Description

Barry Lyndon follows the cunning rise and tragic fall of an Irish rogue who schemes his way into wealth, nobility, and high society through deception, duels, and marriage. Narrated with ironic detachment, Thackeray’s novel exposes the hypocrisy and moral emptiness of 18th-century aristocracy. Despite fleeting success, Barry’s ambition, pride, and recklessness lead to ruin, exile, and despair. A masterful blend of picaresque adventure and social satire, the story critiques the illusion of class and the corrupting nature of power, all rendered with Thackeray’s signature wit and moral complexity.
