The Tale of Genji: Dreams at Dawn Vol. 1
by 大和和紀, Waki Yamato
My Rating : 4
I have never read any Japanese classic literature and reading this book as a Manga definitely heightened the experience! The artwork is so whimsical and flowing, the story is really captivating and the way the storyline is portrayed is wonderful. It took some time for me to figure out the pattern of the illustration to read, but after that, it was really good. The character summary at the end really helped me understand the overall picture. Since the artwork is similar, it might get a little confusing to identify the individuals, but I don't think it hinders the reading experience though. Definitely going to read more of Japanese classics now !
