Pride and Prejudice with Pictures!

Did you know that Marvel has published a graphic novel version of Jane Austen’s classic Pride and Prejudice? (Thank you to Jenny for the info!)

As someone who devours all things Jane Austen, I was thrilled to hear about this. I’m all about bringing nineteenth century literature to the masses.

My copy arrived this morning. I can’t wait to dive right in. Doesn’t Caroline Bingley (above) look deliciously awful?! I abhor Mr. Collins already too:

I’ll provide one last shot, because I know you’re dying to see their interpretation of Pemberley…

I can’t wait to get reading… After this, I’m tackling the Marvel Illustrated Sense & Sensibility.

  1. neither comic books nor jane austen are my thing, but this is a brilliant idea! i hope it works out for them (marvel and those classic literature buffs)!

  2. Though I admit I’m a snob about original versions, I did come to appreciate graphic novels when I taught dyslexic students. Such a wonderful and visual way to introduce working readers to great books. I <3 Jane Austin! I just reserved this at the public library. Thanks for posting!

  3. Please let me know how it is! If it’s good I’ll run out and get a copy too! I love graphic novels!
