"She's a Capulet. He's a Montague. But when Romeo and Juliet first meet, they don't know they're from rival families-- and when they find out, they don't care. Their love is honest and raw and all-consuming. But it's also dangerous. How much will they have to sacrifice before they can be together? In a masterful adaptation faithful to Shakespeare's original text, Gareth Hinds transports readers to the sun-washed streets and market squares of Shakespeare's Verona, vividly bringing the classic play to life on the printed page."-- Provided by publisher.
Contents: Romeo and Juliet.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Love this book! submitted by princesslydia on June 25, 2016, 4:21pm I love how this book didn't go by the traditional Shakespearean stereotypes, with both Capulets and Montagues being white, by having the Capulets being Indian and Montagues being African-American.
I highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend this book!
