              <text>&lt;p&gt;Anchoring her poetic narrative in the midst of the Great Migration, Rita Dove knits together the story of Thomas and Beulah, a black couple living in the industrial and urban Midwest. Divided into two halves, the first twenty-three poems in the section “Mandolin” are Thomas’s while the other twenty-one in the section “Canary in Bloom” are Beulah’s. The two halves come together in a poetry collection that tells the story of a migrant generation from two gendered vantage points. Dove was the second black woman to be named United States Poet Laureate, after Gwendolyn Brooks. &lt;i&gt;Thomas and Beulah&lt;/i&gt; garnered her the Pulitzer Prize in 1987.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
