Coup de coeur
(Manga), by Nicolas
From the moment I picked up Jane Austen's works as a young teen, I fell in love with her witty prose and memorable characters. What truly amazed me is how faithfully the manga stays true to Austen's narrative. The spirit of the original shines through, allowing both longtime fans and newcomers to experience the emotional depth and delightful humor that Austen is known for.
Impulsive Marianne Dashwood and cautious Elinor are as different as two sisters could be, yet both are shattered by their father’s sudden death. Elinor’s attachment to the reserved Edward Ferrars is torn asunder by family opposition and his own dark secret, while Marianne’s brilliant romance with the dashing John Willoughby comes to a tumultuous end in a devastating public betrayal. Can the two sisters overcome these trials to find true, lasting happiness?
