Silos
Like martial swans in spring paraded against the city sky's
shabby blue, they were always too white and
suddenly there.
They were never fingers, never xylophones, although once
a stranger said they put him in mind of Pan's pipes
and all the lost songs of Greece. But to the townspeople
they were like cigarettes, the smell chewy and bitter
like a field shorn of milkweed, or beer brewing, or
a fingernail scorched over a flame.
No, no, exclaimed the children. They're a fresh packet of chalk, dreading math work. They were masculine toys. They were tall wishes. They were the ribs of the modern world. Rita Dove

African American Review
Spring, 2000 by Theodora Carlisle
Writer as Reader Rita Dove's The Darker Face of the Earth is a recounting of the Oedipus drama, framed in terms of the African-American experience of slavery. It is a poet's reading of Oedipus the King, resonating with the beauty and richness of the ancient images and the harrowing dynamics of the mythic plot. Like the original, Dove's play draws on a transcendent power, a dynamic that is at once erotic, compassionate, and creative. The play as a whole, set on a pre-Civil War plantation near Charleston, South Carolina, is a reading not only of the Oedipus myth but also and in particular of the reality of slavery in the American past. In looking at that history, and at those scars that continue to "write" the circumstances of the present, this reading is endowed with both compassion and clearheaded responsibility to face and recognize the horrors as well as the richness implicit in the past. The play received its premiere production in July 1996 under the direction of Ricardo Khan at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. [1] As a play authored by a black woman, its very presentation raises the question of what it means to adapt and restage, and thus reread, classics of the Western tradition for today's audiences. It remains to be seen how this work will be positioned in the "great racial dilemma" (Cruse 49)whether to underscore the "African" or the "American" in the African-American literary tradition. Clearly Dove's work reflects what Henry Louis Gates, Jr., identifies as a "two-toned heritage," one which, while it "revise[s] texts in the Western tradition,[ldots] [does] so 'authentically,' with a black difference [ldots] based on the black vernacular" (Signifying xxii-xxiii). [2]

Rita Dove: Chorus of Voices
Steven Ratiner Named the next poet laureate of the United States, Ms. Dove is a professor of English at the University of Virginia. In 1987, her collection "Thomas and Beulah" made her one of the youngest winners ever of the Pulitzer Prize for poetry. The book encapsulates the history of the 20th-century African-American migration to the North by focusing on her grandparents and the family they created in Ohio. In "Grace Notes," the poems are perhaps more intimate but still resonate with the voices of friends and family, still captivate us with her startling sense of the particular. Her recent novel, "Through the Ivory Gate," explores the way the chords of memory and imagination are blended in the composition of a life. Music is a motif that runs throughout Rita Dove's writing, coming to represent the pure realm of spirit at the core of our experience. Her verse, by turns, wails like a jazz riff, soars like a gospel choir, and simmers with a classical elegance. She reminds us of the communal power we inherit along with our spoken language and the beauty of the voices that are, perhaps now, singing within us as well. Steven Ratiner One of the central features in your poetry and fiction is the power of history and memory. Where does that drive to tell the story originate in your life?

    Rita Dove
    (b.
    Former U.S. poet laureate Rita Dove has an international poetic vision. The settings of her enigmatic lyrics move from Ohio to Germany to Israel; the time frames shift from the present to a past both historical and personal. In a single volume, slaves, biblical characters, mythological figures, and members of Dove’s own family stand side by side. Although she has been rightly celebrated as an eloquent African American female voice, her frequently shifting viewpoint suggests that she sees her work transcending race and gender as well as time and place.
    Born in 1952 in Akron, Ohio, Dove was the second of four children in a middle-class family. Both her paternal grandfather and her father worked for the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company in Akron. Her father, Ray Dove, earned a master’s degree and became the company’s first black chemist, though at the time of his oldest daughter’s birth he was still restricted to running the company elevator.
    Rita Dove attended the public schools in Akron and then enrolled at Miami University in Ohio, where she graduated
