From the author of Municipal Gothic and The Grave Digger's Boy. The fourteen stories in Intervals of Darkness are all varying degrees of weird, from the subtle, foreboding strangeness of 'Men Who Live in Caravans' to the classically spooky atmosphere of 'The Unbidden Guest'. They're set in post-war churches and factories and tower blocks, and on desolate marshes and wintry farmland. There are formal experiments, too, such as an oral history of a local legend, and the off-air transcript of a long-lost children's TV show.

"Impressively eerie and packed with shocks, Intervals of Darkness ushers the reader through 1970s grime and Gothic opulence, with moments of powerful poignancy and startling strangeness. You'll want to linger over these stories." - Verity Holloway

"Housing estates, factories, tower blocks and caravans, nowhere is safe from Ray Newman's dark imagination. Existing somewhere between Robert Aickman and JG Ballard, these blackly funny tales are sure to chill you, no matter how high you turn the central heating. It's every bit the equal of Municipal Gothic, and if anything it's darker and stranger." - John Grindrod

"Newman returns to haunted Britain with fourteen more wonderful stories... Fans of folk horror and weird fiction will find a lot to love in this collection." - Rowan Lee at The Harvest Maid's Revenge
