From Michael Turner, the fan favourite artist of Witchblade and Tomb Raider, comes Fathom, the new graphic novel sensation. From the depths they rose in search of the child of two worlds, she who walked among the air-breathers but was part of another world, the world below. Her name is Aspen Matthews, and they showed her her heritage, the beauty of the oceans. But behind their concern lurked a darker agenda, a brewing war with mankind and an anicent mystery. Aspen is the key, a vessel of immense power, and she stands at a crossroads, torn between the world that birthed her and world that raised her. Her destiny unfolds.

Review Victorian Literature and the Anorexic Body (Cambridge Studies in Nineteenth-Century Literature and Culture) / Cambridge University Press:Anna Silver examines the ways nineteenth-century British writers used physical states of the female body-hunger, appetite, fat and slenderness-in the creation of female characters. She argues that anorexia nervosa, first diagnosed in 1873, serves as a paradigm for the cultural ideal of middle-class womanhood in Victorian Britain. Silver uses the works of a wide range of writers (including Charlotte Brontë, Christina Rossetti, Charles Dickens, Bram Stoker and Lewis Carroll) to demonstrate that mainstream models of middle-class Victorian womanhood share important qualities with the beliefs or behaviors of the anorexic female.
