Leigh grew up in Rotterdam, drawn to the waterfront as an escape from her unhappy home life and volatile father. Enchanted by the undersea world of her childhood, she excels in marine biology, travelling the globe to study ancient organisms. When a trench is discovered in the Atlantic ocean, Leigh joins the exploration team, hoping to find evidence of the earth's first life forms - what she instead finds calls into question everything we know about our own beginnings.Her discovery leads Leigh to the Mojave desert and an ambitious new space agency. Drawn deeper into the agency's work, she learns that the Atlantic trench is only one of several related phenomena from across the world, each piece linking up to suggest a pattern beyond human understanding. Leigh knows that to continue working with the agency will mean leaving behind her declining mother and her younger sister, and faces an impossible choice: to remain with her family, or to embark on a journey across the breadth of the cosmos.Exploring the natural world with the wonder and reverence we usually reserve for the stars, In Ascension is a compassionate, deeply inquisitive epic that reaches outward to confront the greatest questions of existence, looks inward to illuminate the smallest details of the human heart, and shows how - no matter how far away we might be and how much we have lost hope - we will always attempt to return to the people and places we call home.

Donde los caballeros se empolvaban las pelucas, una pista de tenis que se convirtió en una fábrica que, a su vez, pasó a ser un museo, el monumento más antiguo de Gran Bretaña, una reliquia industrial olvidada en el corazón de la ciudad, un jardín secreto en Widcombe, una carretera que cierra seis semanas al año para proteger a los sapos, una vista poco conocida del Bath real, el teatro que se convirtió en iglesia que, a su vez, pasó a ser una logia masónica, un interior art déco único en la ciudad. Lejos de las multitudes y los tópicos habituales, Bath tiene inúmeros tesoros ocultos por descubrir para los que saben deambular fuera de los caminos trillados. Esta es una guía indispensable para quienes realmente deseen conocer Bath y, sobre todo, para los que creen que ya la conocen.

Aclamado en todo el mundo como un monumento literario, La Divina Comedia, terminada en 1321 y escrita por Dante Alighieri (1265-1321), está considerada la obra literaria más importante escrita en italiano. El poema épico describe el viaje de Dante a través del infierno, el purgatorio y el cielo, representando, en un nivel más profundo, el camino del alma hacia la salvación. En los últimos años de su vida, el artista y poeta romántico William Blake (1757-1827) realizó 102 ilustraciones para la obra maestra de Dante, tanto bocetos a lápiz como acuarelas acabadas. Al igual que el revolucionario poema de Dante, los dibujos de Blake incluyen tanto escenas de sufrimiento infernal o luz celestial como horribles desfiguraciones humanas o de perfección física. Aunque fiel al texto, Blake también aportó su propio punto de vista sobre algunos de los temas centrales de Dante. Las ilustraciones de Blake, que en el momento de su muerte se hallaban en diferentes fases de ejecución, se encuentran hoy en siete instituciones distintas. Esta edición de TASCHEN reúne de nuevo todas estas imágenes acompañadas de fragmentos de la obra maestra de Dante. Dos textos introductorios evalúan la figura de Dante y de Blake relacionándolos con otros importantes artistas que también se inspiraron en la Divina Comedia, como Sandro Botticelli, Miguel Ángel, Eugène Delacroix, Gustave Doré y Auguste Rodin. Mediante un análisis pormenorizado de las ilustraciones de Blake y muchos fragmentos ampliados que permiten maravillarse con los detalles más delicados, se dan cita en este volumen dos de los talentos artísticos más excepcionales de la historia ante unos temas tan universales como el amor, la culpa, el castigo, la venganza y la redención.
