IN EVERY GENERATION A SLAYER IS BORN SC (C: 1-1-1)(W) Katz, Evan RossHACHETTE BOOK GROUPStockID: 71752 SKU: JAN231573Over the course of its seven-year run- Buffy the Vampire Slayer cultivated a loyal fandom and featured a strong- complex female lead- at a time when such a character was a rarity. Evan Ross Katz explores the show's cultural relevance through a book that is part oral history- part celebration- and part memoir of a personal fandom that has universal resonance still- decades later. Katz-with the help of the show's cast- creators- and crew-reveals that although Buffy contributed to important conversations about gender- sexuality- and feminism- it was not free of internal strife- controversy- and shortcomings. Into Every Generation a Slayer Is Born engages with the very notion of fandom- and the ways a show like Buffy can influence not only how we see the world but how we exist within it.
