The narrative follows the misadventures of Barry Lyndon, a character whose escapades lead him into various predicaments. Originally published in serial form, the work reflects Thackeray's struggles during its composition, as he often felt frustrated with Barry's continuous troubles. Despite its eventual publication as "The Memoirs of Barry Lyndon, Esq.," Thackeray himself regarded this novel as one of his lesser achievements, highlighting the author's complex relationship with his own creation.
