Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Memoirs of Barry Lyndon, Esq., historical novel by William Makepeace Thackeray, first published in Fraser's Magazine in 1844 as The Luck of Barry Lyndon: A Romance of the Last Century. The book was published in two volumes in 1852-53, and it was revised ("with admissions") as The Memoirs of Barry Lyndon, Esq. in 1856. Deprived of wealth and estates by relatives, Widow Barry devotes herself to the careful rearing of her son Redmond. Uncle Brady takes a liking to the lad and asks the widow for permission to take the child to his ancestral home, Brady Castle. While there, Barry is treated kindly by his uncle. One of his cousins, Mick, persecutes him, however, and Mrs. Brady hates him. Aggressive by nature, Barry invites animosity; his landless pride in his ancestral heritage leads him into repeated neighborhood brawls until he fights every lad in the area and acquires the reputation of a bully. At age fifteen, he falls in love with twenty-four-year-old Nora Brady, who is in love with Captain John Quinn, an Englishman. Deeply in debt, Uncle Brady hopes that Nora will marry the captain, who promises to pay some of the old man's debts. Thoroughly unscrupulous and lacking in appreciation for his uncle's kindness, Barry insults Quinn in a fit of jealousy and wounds him in a duel. Believing the captain dead, Barry hurriedly sets out on the road to Dublin. On the way, he befriends Mrs. Fitzsimons, the victim of a highway robbery. She takes him to her castle where Barry spends some of his own money in a lavish attempt to create a good impression. When he loses all his money through high living and gambling, Mrs. Fitzsimons and her husband are glad to see him leave....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barry Lyndon—far from the best known, but by some critics acclaimed as the finest, of Thackeray's works—appeared originally as a serial a few years before VANITY FAIR was written; yet it was not published in book form, and then not by itself, until after the publication of VANITY FAIR, PENDENNIS, ESMOND and THE NEWCOMES had placed its author in the forefront of the literary men of the day. So many years after the event we cannot help wondering why the story was not earlier put in book form; for in its delineation of the character of an adventurer it is as great as VANITY FAIR, while for the local colour of history, if I may put it so, it is no undistinguished precursor of ESMOND.

Barry lyndon was written in 1843 and 1844, and first appeared in Fraser' 8 Magazine in the latter year. As was the case with nearly all of Thackeray's serially published novels, the end was not written until almost the time when the serial publication required it Thack cray's diary recording on November 4, 1844, finished Barry after great throes late at night. He had writ ten at it all through the year in Paris and in London, and apparently with unusual difficulty in the midst of other undertakings; Mrs. Ritchie quotes several passages from the diary and from letters, ranging from October, 1843, to August, 1844, showing work for Punch and many things in hand besides, and nearly all expressing anxiety at the slow and laborious progress of the novel. Finally he carried it with him on his journey from Cornhill to Cairo, and wrote the last lines, and the diary entry just cited, in quarantine at Malta on his way home.
