  <abstract>Manga Classics: Romeo and Juliet brings the classic tale of star-crossed lovers to life as a comic book.

William Shakespeare’s tragic play about a young couple from two warring families is perhaps the greatest love story ever told. Manga Classics retells the tale with bold illustrations, making it easy to follow yet still introducing some of Shakespeare’s timeless poetry.

Follow the ups and downs of the young lovers as they meet, fall in love, then have to deal with the consequence of their parents’ enmity.

Each volume in the Manga Classics series provides a fast-paced and fun introduction to a great work of literature in a manner that is clear, accessible and entertaining.</abstract>
