With an Introduction and Notes by Katherine McGowran.Christina Rossetti is widely regarded as the most considerable woman poet in England before the twentieth century. No reading of nineteenth century poetry can be complete without attention to this prolific and popular poet. Rosetti's inner life dominates her poetry, exploring loss and unattainable hope.Her divine poems have a freshness and toughness of thought, while many of her love poems are erotic, and as often express love for women as for men. The varied threads of Rossetti's concerns are drawn together in what is perhaps her greatest poem, the strange and ambiguous 'Goblin Market'.

Den engelske digter Christina Rossettis sensuelle og syrede langdigt Nissemarkedet er fra 1862. Digtet fortæller om de unge søster Lizzie og Laura og deres møde med nissekøbmændene i kløften i skoven. Nissemændene sælger farlige frugter fulde af safter, og Laura kan ikke modstå deres kalden og hengiver sig til nissernes fristelser. Bagefter sygner hun dog hen, og så må søsteren Lizzie tilbage ud i skoven og se, om han kan snøre nissemændene til at få deres safter på sine kinder så hendes søster derhjemme kan slikke dem af, uden at Lizzie selv indtager dem.
