Shakespeare turned a tale of unrequited love, family dispute and fatal shipwreck into a miraculously evergreen Christmas favourite. At the beginning of the story, everyone is alone; by the end, everyone - well, almost everyone - has found their other half.
Review
'Twelfth Night' Manga style, a truly inviting way to read Shakespeare. Never have I been able to understand, let alone particularly follow, Shakespeare's literature. If you're like me, you always struggled at school to understand the wit and mirth of Shakespeare's plays. The way the manga characters convey the emotional intent of the writing makes it so easy to undertstand characters. So as a result I found myself reading on and laughing at the characters and the cocktail of conniving schemes and mixed messages. And most importantly, I understanding it.
I recommend this to anyone who would like a little light hearted Shakespearian, or just to drool at satifyingly good illustrations.
