Written by Jenny L. Davis, the collection combines humor and uncomfortable realities to challenge the academy and explore the experience of being Indigenous in university classrooms and campuses. The poems move between the personal dynamics of a Two-Spirit\/queer Indigenous woman in spaces where there are few, if any, others and a Trickster's critique of those same spaces. Trickster Academy is playful at times, but it also addresses more complicated and salient issues. Davis's collection deeply challenges the institutions that still hold Indigenous remains in their archives and storage rooms and the insincerities of the academy when it comes to acknowledging Indigenous peoples. The realities that the poems in Trickster Academy address are not only relevant to people in academic positions but also to anyone who has left home, been the only Indian in the room, or has had to deal with the constant pressures of being a \"real Indian.\" These poems illuminate the shared experiences of Indians across many regions and all of us who live amongst Tricksters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 363g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 178 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780816542659\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jenny L.
