Constructive Negativity is a book of criticism without precedent in Canadian Literature. The result of over twenty years of participation in the nation's poetry community, it combines Shane Neilson's 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 Rilke's 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.
