Northanger Abbey Read Along: Misty's Responses.

I hope you guys give this wonderful book a try. The book is over 300 pages, yet a very quick and enjoyable read. This book is in the traditional Manga format, meaning it is read Right to Left. This is to be expected in the manga process, which is why this book is a nice complement to those who have read the original novel beforehand. However the emotional impact of Austen’s language is lost to some extent.

King follows the path of the novel with very few deviations. Though a visual feast, the verbal portion of the story is solid as well. So much detail is paid to the look and motion of the characters that they seem to glide across the page and through the landscapes. Tse’s art is so stunning it leaps off the page, even in Black & White.

I loved seeing the delicate facial features, wide expressive eyes, blushes and comedic chibi figures move through the story I, and many other fans know by heart. It was so much fun seeing Darcy, Elizabeth, Jane and Bingley in full manga form. The main draw to me for this book was the art. When the fine folks at Netgalley offered this book as a digital download, I added it to my reader immediately! When I heard of Udon Entertainment’s Pride & Prejudice Manga adaptation I knew I had found my must read book for the 2014 event. Happy August! Since discovering the Austen in August Events few years ago, I’ve loved planning what Austen themed reads I will immerse myself in for the month of August. Review: Manga Classics: Pride & Prejudice by Stacy E. Today's guest review of the very recently released (as in, just a few days ago!) manga retelling of P&P comes from Kai of A Fiction State of Mind! Kai is a long-time contributor to Austen in August / Jane in June, and an ardent Janeite, as well as manga & graphic novel lover, so she's pretty much the perfect person to share this book with us.Ĭlick through to see her thoughts on this one, and to share yours in the comments!
