Author: Neil Boyack
Format: Paperback
Number of Pages: 185
In Transactions, his first solo collection of short stories, Boyack writes with penetration and revelation, finding the profound in the everyday. Modelling his work on the literary giants, Lawson and White, Boyack looks to the simplicities of everyday relationships for the meat of his stories and discovers special symbolism in the simplest gesture or mannerism. The single discarded shoe on the roadside becomes a symbol of social decay and dysfunction in Boyack's sometimes bleak vision. Trips to the beach and days spent drinking are loaded with betrayal, menace and violence in the places his characters inhabit. Human relationships are mixtures of love and hate but are always illuminated by Boyack's shafts of light and hope.
