520 1 $a"The television series Buffy and Angel revolve around radical conceptions of family. Indeed, their coherence depends on the establishment of nontraditional families that admit vampires, demons, witches, werewolves, and other bizarre characters without censuring them for their peculiarities. Yet families they are, and their most involved struggles occur not within the graveyard, but around the dinner table, just as their most challenging adversaries are not demons or vampires but the stuff of everyday life." "What does "family" encompass within these two series? How does it relate to concepts of gender, sexuality, power and the supernatural as they emerge from the shows' complex narratives? This book explores such questions and examines how the notion of family is transformed by the unique and supernatural relationships that proliferate in Buffy and Angel."--BOOK JACKET.
