However, are there actually very few works whose plots you know? When you actually try to read them, you might find it difficult to fully understand them due to differences in style from modern language and differences in contemporary values. Therefore, this project will present a dramatic reading of famous literature with an original scenario that has been “super-translated” – modern interpretation, arranged for modern times, and translated into modern language. We offer a new way to enjoy famous literature in a format that is accessible to people living in the modern age! We hope that this super-translated work will serve as an opportunity for you to experience literary works. ■Official website/SNS Official website https://www.fwinc.co.jp/rabbit-note-project/ Official X @Rabbit_Note_P (https://twitter.com/Rabbit_Note_P) Recommended hashtags: #RNP #SuperTranslatedLiterature [Copyright notation] (C)Rabbit Note Project Copyright ©
