Manga Classics: Sense and Sensibility (Manga Classics) by Stacy King (Goodreads Author) (Story Adaptation), Po Tse (Art by), Jane Austen (Original Story)

Manga Classics: Sense and Sensibility - 4.5 Stars

Synopsis

Impulsive Marianne Dashwood and cautious Elinor are as different as two sisters could be, yet both are shattered by their father's sudden Death. Elinor's attachment to the reserved Edward Ferrars is torn asunder by family opposition and his own dark secret, while Marianne's brilliant romance with the dashing John Willoughby comes to a tumultuous end in a devastating public betrayal. Can the two sisters overcome these trials to find true, lasting happiness?

Jane Austen's beloved first novel, filled with romance, redemption and social critique, is brought to life for a modern audience in this gorgeous manga-style adaptation!


Review

What can I say but wow. I was blown away of how well, this manga was. I have read manga before but this was something incredibly special. I love Jane Austen and her stories have been favourites since my childhood. I loved the idea of turning a beloved classic into a style fit for a new modern audience. The author has managed to add all the details and fundamentals of the story without losing any of the charm or story. The art style is beautiful and well done. I highly recommend this to anyone. I will defiantly be picking up more manga from the Manga classics team.
