Goblin Market and Other Poems

Audiobook Flow is carrying Goblin Market and Other Poems. Written by Christina Rossetti.

An important and often-quoted literary figure, the English poet Christina Rossetti (1830–1894) wrote some of the most lyrical and voluptuous poetry in the English language. Like Emily Dickinson, she lived in self-imposed isolation, writing of God and lost love with a sensuality and passion that seemed to emanate from the soul. This edition of 53 works combines a number of her best-known sonnets, ballads, and shorter lyrics with her long masterpiece, the narrative fable Goblin Market . A haunting fairy tale in verse, Goblin Market was once labeled a children’s poem, yet its intricate symbolism and themes of temptation, sin, and redemption mark it for an adult audience. Among other works included in this choice collection are “The Convent Threshold,” “Up-hill,” “Cousin Kate,” ” My Secret,”
