“But soft! what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun!”
Shakespeare’s wonderful play is as relevant today as it was when it was written, over 400 years ago and is brought to vibrant life here in our full-colour graphic novel adaptations.
As with all our Shakespeare titles the period is faithful to the Bard’s intentions. There is a choice of three text versions and the books also features a fascinating insight into the history of the play.
