Manga Shakespeare: Othello
<DIV> <DIV><I>Othello </I>and <I>As You Like It </I>are the newest additions to the imaginative world of <I>Manga Shakespeare</I>. In the face of the false evidence produced by the conniving Iago, Othello cannot trust his wife, and his mistrust leads to the play’s tragic conclusion. In <I>As You Like It</I>, Rosalind, dressed like a boy, falls in love with Orlando. A mistaken-identity comedy follows, with a happy ending (or the ultimate justice served) for those who deserve it. Both plays have been refreshingly updated in the style of manga while maintaining Shakespeare’s beautiful language.<BR><BR></DIV></DIV>F&P level: Z
