by Michael Chabon The 2001 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, is the story of two ambitious young men; Sammy Clay, a New York City writer, and his cousin, Josef Kavalier, a refugee draftsman from Prague, brought to the States by the events of the Second World War. Arriving on his cousin's doorstep in 1939, the two embark on a friendship - and subsequent working relationship - sparked by the emerging concept of the comic book. Using narrative, flashbacks, and shifting perspectives, Chabon whisks us away on a journey spanning some 15 years, exploring themes of sexuality, loyalty, family, politics, and censorship, all while deftly sketching a picture of a rapidly-changing American society.

by Benjamin Hervey George A. Romero's Night of the Living Dead (1968) is widely acknowledged as one of the most influential horror films of all time. Shot on a low budget on black and white film, Night depicts an America under siege from reanimated corpses. Drawing on original archival research, author Benjamin Hervey traces how the film quickly gained cult status, while at the same time it was hailed as a piece of art cinema and as a deep political allegory.

Attacked by Fire Pirates, lost at sea, and left for dead, Ven is rescued by a passing ship on its way to the island of Serendair.

(W) Will Brooker Will Brooker's illuminating study takes issue with many commonly held ideas about Star Wars. He provides a close cinematic analysis, carefully examining its shots, editing, sound design, cinematography, and performances. Brooker argues that Star Wars is a continuation of Lucas' experiments with sound and image, revealing Lucas's contradictory desires for the total order and control of the Empire, and, on the other hand, for the raw energy and creative improvisation of the Rebels. Though at first Star Wars seems a simple fairy tale, it becomes far more complex when we realize that the director is rooting for both sides, creating a tension that unsettles the saga as a whole and illuminates new sides of Lucas's masterpiece.

In the tradition of Logicomix, a riveting graphic novel on the life and stoic philosophy of Marcus Aurelius. Donald Robert's graphic novel Verissimus reimagines the life and philosophy of the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius. Based closely on historical sources and weaving them into a thrilling historical epic, Verissimus teaches readers a philosophy of life through illustration. It opens with Marcus' death and tells the story of his entire journey: his education, relationships, wars, plague, and civil war -- all leading up to his remarkable death. Verissimus illustrates key Stoic ideas, and focuses on developing love, empathy, and overcoming anger -- all emotions with which Marcus struggled. Robertson highlights several key relationships, and through them tells the story of the famous philosopher's intellectual journey and emotional transformation.
