Manga Shakespeare: Twelfth Night

TRUE LOVE'S SEASON

In this comedy of mistaken identity and thwarted love, Viola and her twin brother, Sebastian, are shipwrecked on Illyria, where they wreak havoc on the romantic lives of Countess Olivia and Duke Orsino. Viola, dressed as a man, can't shake the attention of Olivia — but she only has eyes for Orsino. Transported into a steampunk-inspired nineteenth century, this interpretation of Shakespeare's beloved classic captures the chaos and poetry of the original in a whole new way.

The Manga Shakespeare series is an exciting new way to read the works of William Shakespeare — and much more fun than a study guide! Using Shakespeare's original text and drawing inspiration from modern Japan, each of the books brings to life one of the most important works od literature in the English language. Whether it's for school or for relaxation, whether you're a fan of manga or of the Bard, Manga Shakespeare won't disappoint!
