Romeo and Juliet is the classic tragedy of western literature. Created by
William Shakespeare, it is tale of two very young lovers from Verona, Italy who
defy the wishes of their feuding families, get married then, and tragically, end
their own lives in the name of love. It is their deaths that ultimately help
the rival families of the Capulet's and Montague's find reconciliation. Manga
