A comedy of mistaken identity and thwarted love, "Twelfth Night" is
one of Shakespeare's most beloved plays and is frequently performed
and studied across the country. When Viola finds herself
shipwrecked, she pretends to be a male servant and falls in love
with Duke Orsino. The Manga Shakespeare interpretation, which
incorporates fresh ideas and thoughtful settings, will introduce
the classic play to a new audience of Shakespeare fans.
Praise for "Twelfth Night
""This manga adaptation of Shakespeare's romantic comedy is as
enjoyable as the Bard intended. Li's sweet shojo art style fits the
story perfectly, and the pseudohistorical setting is fun. Her deft
touch with facial expressions, comic inserts, and chibis (cute
little cartoon characters) will help readers understand the
Elizabethan dialogue. This solid entry in the Manga Shakespeare
series will make a useful addition to class studies, especially for
teachers reluctant to use adaptations with simplified language."
