This was well-done and I would have rated it higher if it hadn't been for one thing: some of the male characters looked way too similar to each other. I had to keep reminding myself that Gatsby had wavy hair, Tom had a buzzcut, etc. Still, the Jazz Age feel was definitely there, which impressed me for a graphic novel! ( )
The artwork in this retelling is simply stunning. A great way to approach classic literature that may be intimidating to readers. Highly recommended. ( )
I'm not a fan of the original novel, but I thought I'd give this a go since it turned up at the local library. I shouldn't have bothered. Even in graphic novel format this book is filled with one of the most unlikable cast of characters I've come across. What a bunch of losers.
Art, color palette, fonts -- none of them were particularly appealing either, though that could just be my mind souring on them due to their relation to this story. ( )
