4.0 out of 5 stars America's Poet Laureate!, June 16, 2008
This review is from: Mother Love: Poems (Paperback)
Rita Dove is not as well-known as Nikki Giovanni or Maya Angelou but she is one of the more accomplished female poets and African Americans of this generation. Her poetry is often simple at times but there are several levels and new information is given regarding her poetry. In this book, she calls upon the ancient Greeks and examines the love between mother and daughter. The poems' settings are as various as Arizona and the streets of Paris and Mexican pyramids. Rita Dove's love of poetry comes through in her work and she should be better known to today's readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Value, October 8, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Mother Love (Hardcover)
Great value for the money, and great service! The book arrived in a timely fashion and in a condition that the person who received the book on my behalf believed it was a new book; so the description 'like new' was very accurate. I would recommend this buyer to whomever is seeking books in great condition at an unbeatable price.
