Will is Shane Neilson’s debut collection of short fiction.
The book ranges from straightforward East Coast depictions of
alcoholism and frustrated farming told in dense, lyric prose, to
experimental works that play overtly with language and form. In
Will, a boy is beaten by his father; another father cares for his
epileptic son; an anesthetist addicted to sevoflurane ponders the
works of Michael Jackson; Vladimir Nabokov takes a
writer-in-residence position at Memorial University of
Newfoundland; and World War I poet John McCrae dies. And yes, there
is a hockey story. Individual stories have appeared widely in
magazines including Queen’s Quarterly, The Malahat Review,
Fiddlehead, Geist, and The Canadian Medical Association Journal,
among others.
