I enjoyed this one. Difficult enough to be a challenge but has not taken up the whole weekend. Some very tricky clues.
The only loose end is I can’t see the significance of the title - the theme is not my preferred genre. Don’t tell me if it will be too much of a spoiler at this early stage in the week.

Ah thanks ginge. I had spotted the anagram but had not taken the essential step of actually looking at the components of the work.

Thanks to the pointers to 1 down.

All now sorted apart from the fact that I can't make sense (contextual or otherwise) of the extra letters from the final four clues

Hi Bobby

The last 4 letters are what the other words created.
