Just as hard to read as the original, but the zombies make it a far more interesting read. ( ) I love the book and movie versions of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies but I didn't feel the graphic novel was a good medium for this. I struggled to figure out which female character was meant to be who. The characters did not look distinct enough for me which made my struggle. It was also in black and white which isn't my preference for graphic novels though it was possibly necessary for this one due to the graphic content. I also felt there were too many time jumps and they were not well spaces. I felt as if we had a page or two and then a time jump. This was frequent. I would recommend the book over the graphic novel. Terrible. Terrible. Simply terrible. I don't think I've ever said this of any of the books on here, but this was a terrible book and a disappointment. I know there's a recent trend to graphic novelize anything and everything, and I honestly thought making the P&P&Zombies novel into a graphic novel was a SUPERB idea. However, it was a major letdown. The illustrations were great, but not really in a graphic novel format. I'm not sure how to explain this-the characters were sometimes barely distinguishable and the illustrator was NOT good at expressing action or dialogue. He (Richards) actually managed to CONFUSE me. Sometimes a character would be having an internal monologue but there was no way to tell that; in other words, half the time I thought the characters were insane for talking to themselves or hard of hearing for not understanding how other characters were bashing him/her out loud. Other times the text was a lighter shade so you could tell that other characters weren't supposed to have heard that. It was weird. And whoever did the choosing of what text to keep did an abominably poor job. I'm pretty sure there was hardly anything left of Jane Austen's original writing (not completely true-the kiss-off scene between Darcy and Elizabeth is still pretty stellar. I exaggerate because the book bothered me so much), and what is left has been chopped to pieces. Some of the dialogue was so badly put together it seemed as though multiple conversations were happening at once. It was just sucky.
If you’re a Janeite, or even if you’re not, I’m sure you know about the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies craze by now. I’m sure that many of these mashups were in development before PPZ and were released once it was known there was an audience, but many of them have not had the same success as the original. I’m one of the more accepting of the craze myself, but I still find myself rolling my eyes as more and more books join the fray. Having read this graphic novel adaptation of the work that started it all, it seems like an attempt to join in on the cash cow–one that doesn’t seem to have worked quite that well.

"It is know as "the strange plague" and its unfortunate victims are referred to only as "unmentionables" or "dreadfuls." All over England, the dead are rising again, and now even the daughters of Britain's best families must devote their lives to mastering the deadly arts. Elizabeth Bennet is a fearsome warrior whose ability with a sword is matched only by her quick wit and even sharper tongue. But she faces her most formidable foe yet in the haughty, conceited, and somehow strangely attractive Mr. Darcy."--From publisher's description. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
