The vampiric undertones in Goblin Market suggest a deeper exploration of Rossetti’s repressed desires, hinting at the clash between her religious devotion and personal longing—transforming the poem into a gothic critique of Victorian societal constraints
I was thinking of Shirley Henderson’s reading of Goblin Market, which I heard on Radio 4 some time ago, as I read your wonderful essay. Then saw you’d linked to it! I will listen to it again.
Love this article! Rossetti has been one of my favourite poets for a long time now
She's wonderful! It was really interesting to research!
