Prickly is a medley of nonacademic, unprofessional poems written by a cantankerous, often drunken cab driver. They range from prose-like narratives to more lyrical poems. The subjects areloosely based on Schneider's cab fares who are often mentally deranged or physically ill and also from his personal life, the domestic life of a below-blue-collar gringo and a Mexican immigrant. There is sex, humor, rants on artists and writers, and the thorny beauty of the American Southwest.

Autorenporträt
Mather Schneider was born in 1970 in Peoria, Illinois. He has lived in Arkansas, Washington, and Arizona, and now lives in Mexico, which is not as glamorous as it sounds. His works can be found in hundreds of journals and web sites, many of which are defunct. He has had many jobs, none of them teaching, although he was a janitor at a community college for eight months. He is most famous for being a cab driver in Tucson for 15 years.
