“Pitts Displays a Frostian Command of the American Venacular”
– Benjamin Schmitt, At The Inkwell

In the Company of Crows – Poems of mortality, faith and the sociopolitical landscape of America in 2017. With this collection, Brandon Pitts beautifully captures the maelstrom of American society in the throes of self-destruction.
