"This book brings together essays which engage Angel as a text to be addressed within the wider fields of narrative and literature. It is divided into four sections. Each provides opportunities to examine a variety of characters, tropes, and literary nuances and influences throughout all seasons of the series and in the continuation in comic book form"--Provided by publisher.
