books@torontoist is currently running an excellent interview with author Tim Lebbon. Here’s a peek:

“For me, all horror fiction is about death—our dealing with it, fear of it, contemplation of it.” So says Tim Lebbon, horror and dark fantasy writer, and author of The Thief of Broken Toys. Lebbon isn’t afraid to confront the most emotionally and spiritually painful of human experiences. “I’ve written lots of stories about grief and loss, but only experienced true grief four years ago when my mother died,” he says. “Since then I’ve felt I can write about it with a clearer understanding of what it entails, and the complex forms grief can sometimes take. The most powerful stories I’ve written, I think, are about loss.”
