Nota de la solapa:

(back cover)
"Lord, what fools these mortals be."
A
Midsummer
Night's Dream

Strange things are afoot in the woods outside Athens. Two men are in love with the same woman, the King and Queen of Fairies are at loggerheads, and a mischievous sprite is about to weak havoc with a magic flower. Meanwhile, an impish fellow named Puck has really made an ass of an amateur actor called Bottom.

How will it all end?

One of Shakespeare's best-loved comedies is vividly and faithfully retold in graphic novel format.
