A review by justine_ao
Son of a Trickster by Eden Robinson

5.0

I just loved this. Robinson captures all of the larger than life feelings of living so perfectly, showcasing the magnification of life as experienced by teenagers.

The story is simple, populated by complex characters displaying all the ugly and wonderful varieties available. The magical element seeps in and imbues the story without taking it over. It remains centered on the effortful coming of age experienced by Jared as he tries to keep his family and his own sanity intact.
