Bringing together previously unseen artwork, rare ephemera and handwritten material, alongside essays by a slate of fans, EXCAVATE! is a vivid, definitive record - an illumination of the dark corners of the Fall's wonderful and frightening world.

But there are other monsters at large, those who shun fame and secretly claim their victims from among the city’s most vulnerable . . . Options are few for unmarried mothers in Victorian England.
