《名利場》是薩克雷的代表作，也是使他獲得世界聲譽的一部力作。
聰明漂亮的利蓓加出身於貧窮的畫師家庭，從小父母雙亡，在平克頓女子學校受盡歧視。離校後她憑著美貌和機智，不擇手段地獵取金錢，通過投機和冒險，力圖擠進上流社會。幾經坎坷，幾度榮辱，在英國社會的名利場中，她*終還是默默無聞地度日。圍繞利蓓加，小說成功地塑造了愛米麗亞、喬治、羅登、喬瑟夫、克勞萊小姐、都賓等人物的形像。

《名利場》是英國偉大現實主義作家和幽默大師薩克雷的代表作，也是 使他獲得世界聲譽的一部力作。《名利場》主要人物麗貝卡小姐出身低微， 在社會上受到歧視，於是利用種種計謀甚至以色相引誘、巴結權貴豪門，不 擇手段往上爬。這個人物並不邪惡，也不善良，但非常富有人情味，完全是 時代的產物。作品辛辣地諷刺了買賣良心和榮譽的“名利場”中的各種丑惡 現像，而且善於運用深刻的心理描寫和生動的細節勾勒來刻畫人物，是一部 現實主義的傑作。
