Heralding a new regionalism, New Brunswick interrogates the popular representations of Shane Neilson's home province. Structured as a group of serial long poems, this fifth book by the winner of the 2017 Walrus Poetry Prize recasts the political, economic, and social histories of settler New Brunswick, particularly as they relate to the sacrifices of his parents. As forests are reborn and fields are healed by rest, Neilson insists that though \"we want catastrophes of fire,\" out of the ashes of charred dreams and old myths arise avenues for reconciliation through vulnerability and affect. | New Brunswick by Shane Neilson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
