Thackery's "Vanity Fair"
(1847 - 1848)
"A Novel Without a Hero"


                                    Becky Sharp (Richard's sister?)
                                    is a clear predecessor of
                                    Scarlett O'Hara.

                                             GONE_WITH_THE_WIND

There are the good & weak;
and the strong & evil...
is there no third choice?         Certainly in the
                                  real world, we can
                                  find evil & weak.



          Dobbins is the closet
          example we see of a
          good & strong man...

              But a little more assertiveness
              on his part wouldn't hurt, eh?

              He let's himself be used by
              a drip of a woman because he's
              too nice to tell her to knock
              it off and wake up.
