Hill's book features a discussion of previous literature in the field of cultural & fan studies, followed by his own argument of fandom as a dually-natured entity. Much of Hill's ideas focus on the formation of fan communities and the actions within them. This book is a good resource for understanding different theories of fandom, but Hill's community model may not be as appropriate, since Morrissey's Latino fans have been predefined as a community by their ethnicity before their identity as fellow Morrissey fans.
