Split the Crow

Through the lens of Mary Rowlandson's narrative, this collection explores the complexities of American identity and the human experience. Sousa's poetry employs rich imagery and lyrical language to evoke the past, revealing the voices of Native American cultures and their material heritage. The work is characterized by its innovative approach, merging language and consciousness rather than following a linear narrative. Each poem serves as a testament to the struggles of defining oneself amidst a history of othering, urging readers to confront essential truths of their shared past.
