Coup de coeur
(Manga), by Penny
Shakespeare's timeless story of star-crossed lovers breathes anew in this enchanting retelling of Romeo and Juliet. With a perfect blend of poetic dialogue and breathtaking illustrations, the tale becomes both captivating and accessible for todays readers. The artwork beautifully brings each character to life, from the passionate Romeo and Juliet to their feuding families, capturing every glance, every longing. Key moments, like the iconic balcony scene, are rendered with such drama and urgency that you can feel their love blooming and slipping away all at once.
Shakespeare's famous tragedy unfurls in front of a dramatic manga setting, in which the fair city of Verona becomes a street in the highly fashionable Shibuya district of Tokyo.
The swordfights become duals with katanas; the Capulets and the Montagues, opposing Yakuza families. Conflict explodes when Romeo - a bleached-blonde, well-dressed rock star - falls in love with Juliet, the pure and innocent Capulet daughter.
