(Everyman's Library) Clean, tight, unmarked; very minimal wear to upper edge of dust jacket; otherwise absolute minimal wear; burgundy sewn-in ribbon marker; The poems of Christina Rossetti (1830-94) have always been cherished for their exquisitely turned lyrical beauty and the pleasures they provide to the senses. What has become increasingly clear to contemporary readers of her work is its inner strength, the power by which it weaves the erotic with the spiritual, and its deep intimacy with the mysterious.
