Constructive Negativity is a book of criticism without precedent in
Canadian Literature. The result of over twenty years of
participation in the nations poetry community, it combines Shane
Neilsons lived experience of disability with prize culture theory
in order to create that rarest of creatures: criticism as
page-turner. In the first section of the book, Neilson repurposes
Rilkes famous admonition, saying to poets You must change your
genre meaning, you must write criticism in order for poetry to have
a life in an era dominated by prize culture. Later, Neilson
provides a starting point for others to engage with books of
Canadian poetry using the lens of disability, covering a range of
texts and especially weighing in on the authors particular
community, those with invisible disability.
