What is the subtitle of the English novel "Vanity Fair" by William Thackeray?

"Vanity Fair" is an English novel by William Makepeace Thackeray. It was published as a single volume in 1848 with the subtitle "A Novel without a Hero", reflecting Thackeray's interest in deconstructing his era's conventions regarding literary heroism. It is sometimes considered the "principal founder" of the Victorian domestic novel.

The story is framed as a puppet play, and the narrator, despite being an authorial voice, is somewhat unreliable. The serial was a popular and critical success; the novel is now considered a classic and has inspired several audio, film, and television adaptations. In 2003, "Vanity Fair" was listed at No. 122 on the BBC's The Big Read poll of the UK's best-loved books.
