Shane McCauley’s tRICKSTER is indeed a volume of poetry that lives up to its name. Strong, declamatory voices fill the pages, and the care shown with line breaks and form are very much in evidence. McCauley embraces a wide range of subject matter, many poems holding historical links, and a variety of themes emerge across the six chapters. It’s analogous to a stained glass window, with each hue sharpened within its framing.
