这几天，我一直在读《名利场》这本书，它深深地吸引了我。它不仅教会了我虚荣心就像一个魔鬼，不顾一切地追逐名利和荣华富贵，换来的只会是一场空，还使我们真真切切地了解到19世纪英国社会的不良风气，充分懂得了“浮华若梦”的意义。
书中一开始介绍到了两个主要人物——瑞蓓卡和爱米莉亚，一穷一富。除了金钱上的巨大差异，受到的待遇，以及性格更是截然不同。瑞蓓卡口蜜腹剑、两面三刀、阴险狠毒，野心勃勃地追逐名利，是“金钱是唯一主宰”的思想，使她在学校、在社会都饱受歧视，人情冷暖扭曲了她的思想。而爱米莉亚，一个有钱人家的孩子，到哪里都受人宠爱，成长路上几乎没有如何的困难阻挡着她，正因如此，她不需要努力就能进入上流社会，所以变得天真善良，甚至有点傻里傻气。通过这两个人物的一些介绍，更说明了英国社会就是一个追求金钱，荣耀的世界；也说明了追求名利不仅会毁了自己，还会毁了别人，正是所谓的“害人害己”。
我还觉得，这种不良的风气不止存在与19世纪的英国社会，更存在于现在，无论何处，都显现着这种风气。书中写着，瑞蓓卡是一朵“飘零的落花”。可是，生活中处处都存在着一朵朵的“飘零的落花”，正是因为对生活的不服，对名利的不服，造就了她或者他们的追逐名利的脚步。
随着故事情节的发展，瑞蓓卡看似一步步地要走向上流社会的同时（当然最后的结果就是虚荣覆灭），我并不开心，反而感到恶心、厌烦；而天真善良的爱米莉亚虽然遭遇了种种不幸，我也很同情她，但她总比瑞蓓卡要好的多，不用做那些拼尽全力却还是竹篮打水一场空的事情。我想，作者萨克雷心里也一定是这样的想法。
终于到结局了，但却并不如我所想：一般的小说结局说不上十分圆满，但至少也让人欣慰。可是，在《名利场》里，虽然爱米莉亚最终和都宾过上幸福的社会，算不上是全部的悲剧，可是急功近利追逐名利的瑞蓓卡却落得一场空，只好投身于慈善事业中……
这本小说里充满了作者萨克雷对名利世界的讽刺，对虚荣社会的讽刺。可是，他何尝又不是身在名利场中？瑞蓓卡、爱米莉亚、都宾都只是名利场中的几个代表，你，我，他们，以后都会踏入名利场，踏入这个险恶的世界。时代在变，而名利场永远不变。世人们，何时才能摆脱茫茫无期的名利场呢？
出身贫寒但野心勃勃的贝姬·夏普,从小就立志不惜用任何手段进入上流社会;艾米利亚作为陪衬的人物是她同窗女友、一个富商的女儿。她懦弱温柔，驯顺地随命运播弄。从贫贱进入富裕的道路很不平稳！富家女的运途亦多坎坷，正是两人此起彼落的遭遇，构成一个引人关怀又动人情感的故事。
“如果我有5000英磅，我也会是一个好女人。”这是贝姬·夏普的一句经典台词。
长篇小说《名利场》是萨克雷的成名作和代表作。它以辛辣讽刺的手法，真实描绘了1810～1820年摄政王时期英国上流社会没落贵族和资产阶级暴发户等各色人物的丑恶嘴脸和弱肉强食、尔虞我诈的人际关系。
这部小说篇幅宏大，场面壮观，情节复杂，心理刻画深入，其尖锐泼辣的讽刺风格更为精彩。《名利场》是萨克雷的成名作品，也是他生平著作里最经得起时间考验的杰作，在英国现实主义小说的发展史上开辟了新的天地。
不得不承认，这个故事很现实。名利场里的人看不清，名利场外的人同样看不清。所有的人都渴望金钱，地位。一旦你拥有了其中的一样，其他人都会对你另眼相看。
都宾用一生的爱等到了他心爱的人，他的青春，他的年华献给了那个名利场中的可怜人。艾米利亚的单纯和爱戴给她半生的苦痛。然而结局是好的。作者不忍心让好人受苦吧，善良的人得到了幸福，在名利场中出入。那些贪婪的，自私的，愚蠢的，骄傲的，不择手段的人得到了应有的报应。把结局看了几遍。有点高兴，有点伤心。
这不只只是一部小说，这是一个社会的缩影。不光那时的英国，就是今天。谁又不是为名利二字所累呢？其余的一切都是建立在这个基础上的。当物质生活问题没有解决时，又有谁去追求一种纯洁的莫须有的理想呢？所以，大学生学习的目的成了工作，工作的目的是有一份可以让人另眼看待的生活。当然，这没有错，我们都是命运手中的一颗棋子。算计着自己的身价，算计着该怎么样去抬高自己的身价。无奈啊，人们只会去崇拜，谈论那些光鲜的人物，你不去做，会有人去做的。
萨克雷认为：“小说的艺术是表现本质，即尽可能强烈地表达真实的情感。”他的这种理论主张在他的成名作《名利场》中得到了极好的体现。故事发生在19世纪初。在写出《名利场》以前的十余年对于萨克雷来说基本上是一个准备阶段，在这个期间萨克雷对社会上各式各样“上等人”的观察越来越深入细致，艺术手法也日益成熟。《名利场》便是在这个基础上完成的现实主义的杰作。《名利场》里创造了比较丰满的人物形象，描写了社会生活的广阔画面，并通过人物命运的交织而对生活作了总的评价。
《名利场》通过情节的安排企图说明“一切都是浮名浮利”，标题本身出自《天路历程》。他揭开了资本主义社会五光十色的繁荣外表，让人们看到它的本质。萨克雷自己说过，他在《名利场》里要写“一群极端愚蠢自私的人，不顾一切地为非作歹而又热烈追求浮名浮利”，同时，他又说，书中所描写的“全是死亡、争吵、金钱和病痛”。《名利场》并没有严密的故事结构，故事的内容基本上是由两个女主人公利蓓加与爱米丽亚的生活道路串联起来的。爱米丽亚是一位资产阶级小姐，而利蓓加则是个一无所有、在资本主义社会里浑水摸鱼的女人，通过这两个主人公的命运，萨克雷描绘出了当时上流社会中形形色色的众生相
