The first poem in this collection, "Dusting," was the standout for me. The last poem, "Parsley," was also exceptional. Ironically, I understood the allusion in "Parsley" because I read The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao last year, a book I absolutely despised. Actually, I think I hated Oscar and not the book?
Anyway, Dove made me painfully aware of my lack of knowledge in the history department. I think these poems would have resonated much more deeply if I knew more history- especially Medieval and Renaissance History (hey there, Ap Western Civ teacher! Sorry I didn't pay more attention in your class!).
Overall, Dove understands how to shrink the meaning of words down to their most basic essence. Her phrasing is tight and just exactly right, and this collection is solid.
