''The Trickster of Liberty'' is a 1988 novel by Gerald Vizenor that acts as a prequel to his earlier novels ''Bearheart: The Heirship Chronicles'' and ''Griever: An American Monkey King in China''.〔Owens, Louis. ''Understanding the American Indian Novel'' pp. 250-254.〕 The novel is a collection of stories about the mixedblood descendants of Luster Browne and their lives on the White Earth Indian Reservation. The novel continues Vizenor's focus on mixedbloods and tricksters and includes characters from the previous novels, including Griever de Hocus and China Brown from ''Griever'' and Eternal Flame from ''Bearheart''.〔 The novel develops Vizenor's rejection of social science theories that claim the trickster figure reflects an idea or model; to the contrary, Vizenor argues that the trickster is a purely linguistic phenomenon.〔Velie, Alan R. "Gerald Vizenor" in ''Dictionary of Native American Literature'', ed. Andrew Wiget. pp. 499-500.〕 The novel also develops Vizenor's attack on the "invented Indian", including a commentary on the fate of Ishi and a satire on Native American scholars who perpetuate stereotypes of Indian-ness.〔Blaeser, Kimberly M. "Gerald Vizenor" in ''The Cambridge Companion to Native American Literature'', ed. Joy Porter and Kenneth M. Roemer. p. 265〕 The novel was republished under the title ''The Trickster of Liberty: Native Heirs to a Wild Baronage'' in 2005.〔 ==References==
