A review by berlinbibliophile
Goblin Market and Other Poems by Christina Rossetti

5.0

I love Rossetti's poetry. Her imagery is so lush and vibrant, and her characters so alive they almost leap from the page. It was lovely to read her poetry purely for pleasure, without the pressure of a thesis looming in the background. My favourite is "Song (When I am dead, my dearest)". The thought of the refreshing rain on the soft grass is wonderful, and such a restful, peaceful concept of death.
