1852 WILLIAM THACKERAY 1st/1st Mens Wives Victorian Novel Vanity Fair Dickens
“Mens Wives” is a novel by the notable English author William Makepeace Thackeray. The story revolves around the Crump family who operates the “Bootjack Hotel” in a quiet area of London. The family comprises Mr. Crump, a man who proudly remembers his humble beginnings; his wife, a former dancer known as Miss Delancy; and their daughter Morgiana, named after a role her mother famously portrayed. The narrative explores their lives and the dynamics of their relationships, offering a view of a family navigating their society with a history of humble beginnings.
Thackeray, celebrated for his satirical works, notably “Vanity Fair”, drew from a rich background of personal experiences to craft this story, including his time in British India and a career in journalism that spanned various renowned publications. His literary reputation was substantial in the Victorian era, matching that of Charles Dickens.
