Goblin Market, The Prince's Progress, and Other Poems

Christina Georgina Rossetti's collection 'Goblin Market, The Prince's Progress, and Other Poems' is a masterful blend of fantasy, melancholy, and morality. This anthology showcases Rossetti's unique poetic style, characterized by vivid imagery, musical language, and profound themes of love, temptation, and redemption. 'Goblin Market', the centerpiece of the collection, tells the tale of two sisters enticed by goblin men to buy their forbidden fruits, exploring themes of desire and sisterhood in a powerful and evocative way. The other poems in the collection vary in tone and subject matter, but all share Rossetti's signature lyrical beauty and emotional depth. Rossetti's work emerged in the Victorian era, a time of strict social norms and gender expectations, yet her poetry challenges these conventions and offers a nuanced exploration of female experience and desire. With 'Goblin Market, The Prince's Progress, and Other Poems', Rossetti cements her place as a significant voice in English literature, revered for her innovative style and timeless themes. This collection is a must-read for anyone interested in Victorian poetry, feminist literature, or the power of language to captivate and inspire.
