The Yellowplush Papers is a satirical work by English novelist William Makepeace Thackeray. It was originally written under the pseudonym Charles James Yellowplush and published as a serial in Fraser’s Magazine starting in 1837.
The stories are written as the memoirs and diary of a London footman, Charles J. Yellowplush. It is a satirical work, one of Thackery's first, in which the author uses satire and critique of high society, hypocrisy and greed showing how superficial the upper class can be.
