Produktbeschreibung
In this sweeping historical novel, William Makepeace Thackeray traces the lives of two brothers-Harry and George Warrington-as they navigate the tumultuous backdrop of the American colonies and Georgian England in the 18th century. A sequel of sorts to Henry Esmond, this richly layered tale blends personal drama with political upheaval, from the drawing rooms of London to the battlefields of the American Revolution. With Thackeray's signature irony and deep character insight, The Virginians explores themes of honor, loyalty, ambition, and betrayal. The novel examines the cost of war-not only in blood, but in identity, family, and belief. While the setting is grand and historical, the emotional focus is intimate, revealing the internal conflicts of men torn between two worlds and two cultures. A literary epic filled with pathos and wit, this is Thackeray at his most expansive and reflective-a portrait of a world in transition and the people caught in its current.
