  Christina Rossetti: Selected Poems

  Christina Rossetti

  Christina Rossetti was born in 1830, the youngest child in an extraordinarily gifted family including the Italian poet and political exile, Gabriele Rossetti.
  
  Christina Rossetti's poetry has never disappeared from view. Critical interest in her poetry swelled in the final decades of the twentieth century, a resurgence largely impelled by the emergence of feminist criticism; much of this commentary focuses on gender issues in her poetry and on Rossetti as a woman poet.
  
  Collected here are 16 of her most beautiful, haunting, and renowned poems.
  
  - Goblin Market
  - Dremland
  - A Birthday
  - Remember
  - Echo
  - Winter: My Secret

  - Twice

  Is My Microphone On?

  'After thousands of years, I have a mouth… So if you don't mind, Mum, Dad, I'm going to speak. I'm going to shout. When I become a human I'm going to use some words. Can you still hear me? Is my microphone on?'
  Young people have inherited a burning world. In Jordan Tannahill's urgent and lyrical play, they reckon with the generations who have come before them, questioning the choices that have been made, and the ones that they will yet be forced to make.
  In Is My Microphone On? an ensemble of young performers hold the audience to account, and invite them to experience the world together anew.
  The play was commissioned by the Theater der Welt festival in Germany, premiered in English by Canadian Stage, Toronto, in 2021, and performed by youth theatres across the UK as part of the 2023 National Theatre Connections Festival. It offers opportunities for a large, flexible cast of any size or mix of genders, and can incorporate chorus work, movement and music.

  Poetry of the senses

  My love of poetry was always unrequited. As with all young boys, my English teachers forced me to memorize and recite unintelligible Shakespearean sonnets and turn bad blood into worse ink. For the next half-century, I never gave it a chance. 
  But at the age of 71, poetry came in search of me.  
  The theme of ‘senses’ made sense. As a physician and winemaker, I would try to turn exquisite impressions into exquisite expressions, solvents for the soul dipped in dyes of the heart.  
  There are 17 poems in this sense-ational collection, each with a different form, climbing higher on the sensory evolutionary ladder from the cranial nerves to the prefrontal cortex and beyond.  
  Writing them was like dropping a rose petal into an elevator shaft and waiting for the echo.  
  Read these short, jagged-edged lines as imaginary gardens of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of dictionary.
