A Midsummer Night's Dream The Graphic Novel: Original Text

The entire Shakespeare play as a graphic novel.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

This is the entire, unabridged play brought to life as a vivid and engaging full-colour graphic novel.

With its mix of real people who stumble into a fairy kingdom (with its own problems!), it is little wonder that this play is one of the best-loved and most performed of all Shakespeare's masterpieces—and a firm favourite for outdoor theatre on a warm summer's evening.

Designed to encourage readers to enjoy classical literature, titles in the Classical Comics range stay true to the original vision of the authors.

Synopsis:

Hermia is in love with Lysander, but her father forbids them to marry, insisting that she marries Demetrius instead, whom Hermia's friend Helena loves. Hermia and Lysander escape to the woods, pursued by Demetrius and Helena. However, there is trouble in the woods because the king and queen of the fairies, Oberon and Titania, have quarrelled. To spite Titania, Oberon instructs the mischievous Puck to squeeze the juice of a magic flower into her eyes while she sleeps, so that she falls in love with the first thing she sees when she wakes. He also instructs Puck to apply the same magic to Demetrius so that he will fall in love with Helena. However, Puck gets it all wrong...
