Goblin Market and Other Poems (1862) is British writer Christina Rossetti’s first book of poetry. The title poem is her most famous work: a creepy and sensual tale of two sisters’ temptation to eat forbidden fruits. The poems explore themes of death, faith, isolation, and love, with a section of devotional pieces at the end. (Summary by Elizabeth Klett)
