The past narrators were all “flawed” and often “hapless.” MacAskill is more than that. The Toronto-based Fallis concedes that the narrator of One Brother Shy is “different” than the narrators of such previous books as The Best Laid Plans, No Relation and Poles Apart. “It is a bit different in that there is a more serious theme,” Fallis said in a recent interview in advance of his May 13 appearance at the Wakefield Writers Festival. This does not sound like a plot reflecting the sly comical prose that has twice won Fallis the annual Stephen Leacock Medal for Humour.
Terry Fallis’s new book is called One Brother Shy.
