"Vanity Fair" content summary: It mainly describes that the heroine is discriminated against in society, so she uses various strategies and even uses sex to seduce and curry favor with the rich and powerful, and she uses all means to climb up. This character is neither evil nor kind, but very humane and completely a product of the times. The work bitterly satirizes various ugly phenomena in the "vanity fair" where conscience and honor are traded, and is good at using profound psychological description and vivid details to depict characters. It is a masterpiece of realism.
