(3) YA Fine-lined illustrations in delicate colors seem an odd choice for portraying Lear; yet paired with energetic page design and generous use of Shakespeare's original language, the graphic novel succeeds in adding layers of emotion and a strong sense of atmosphere to the play. Appended notes help explain Hinds's choices and the challenges of the text.
