Trickster Makes This World

Mischief, Myth, and Art

Lewis Hyde

"Trickster Makes This World" explores the playful and mischievous side of human imagination through trickster mythology, comparing ancient stories of Hermes, Eshu, Krishna, and Coyote to modern creators like Picasso, Ginsberg, and John Cage. This authoritative and lively work of cultural criticism has become a classic, and now includes an introduction by Michael Chabon.
