This collection, titled Works, features a selection of writings by William Makepeace Thackeray, one of the most celebrated authors of the Victorian era. Included are The History Of Samuel Titmarsh And The Great Hoggarty Diamond, a satirical novel that explores themes of wealth, social climbing, and moral compromise in 19th-century England. Also featured is A Little Dinner At Timmin's, a humorous short story offering a sharp critique of social pretensions and the absurdity of fashionable society. The collection is completed with Notes Of A Journey From Cornhill To Gran Cairo, a series of travel writings that showcase Thackeray's keen observational skills and witty prose as he recounts his experiences traveling from London to Egypt. Edited by Sir Leslie Stephen, this compilation offers readers a diverse sampling of Thackeray's talent and provides valuable insight into the social and cultural landscape of Victorian England.
