Description: |
From its origins in Japan, the highly graphic manga of storytelling has swept the world in recent years. Huck Finn is a manga natural, embodying the great American journey toward "civilization. " Huck and Jim's travels on the great Mississippi are the perfect recipe for an action-packed manga. |
Synopsis: |
Huck Finn: The Manga Edition will be a hit with both manga readers and in the classroom. A four-page essay at the beginning ties the novel and manga together; the rest of the book is taken up with the manga novel itself. So, there should be strong carryover between those people who are manga readers and those teachers/students who want a new and unique way to read the plays. Our Huck Finn manga is true to the original context of the play--we don't take Huck, Jim, and the rest of the characters and set them in a setting/time that's not relevant to Twain's original and intended time/setting. Also, we don't shy away frm the controversial language that you find in Twain's original work. You could say that ours is "true" to the novel. |
