Description
Published in 1844, Barry Lyndon is a picaresque novel about an Irish gentry member's quest to join the English aristocracy. Based on the life and exploits of Andrew Robinson Stoney, the novel follows its protagonist as he navigates a world of fortune-hunting and social climbing.
Written in the first person, the novel offers a unique perspective on its subject's experiences, but also raises questions about the reliability of the narrator. Stanley Kubrick later adapted this novel into a film, which has since been widely acclaimed for its cinematography and direction.
This edition of Barry Lyndon is presented in paperback, with 360 pages that offer a detailed look at Thackeray's exploration of social class and identity in 18th-century England.
