520    In these brilliant poems, Rita Dove treats us to a panoply
       of human endeavor, shot through with the electrifying jazz
       of her lyric elegance. From the opening sequence, "Cameos,
       " to the civil rights struggle of the final sequence, she 
       explores the intersection of individual fate and history.
