Writer Nancy Butler and artist Hugo Petrus capture the essentials of Miss Jane Austen's classic romance in graphic novel format. Inevitably, the storyline has been compressed, and the dialogue was been slightly modernized, but fans should have no problem recognizing the story of the Bennets, the Bingleys, and Mr. Darcy. The best of the dialogue has been preserved while giving us a graphic presentation of a classic.
I did enjoy this graphic novel version as it captured the essence of what makes this classic timeless and so good. Hopefully this will bring this story to a new age of readers.
