By Christina Rossetti and Hughes Arthur Ill

Book Overview

Speaking Likenesses is a collection of poems written by Christina Georgina Rossetti and published in 1874. The poems in this collection are primarily focused on the themes of love, faith, and nature. Rossetti's writing style is characterized by its lyrical quality, use of vivid imagery, and its exploration of the complexities of human emotions. The poems in Speaking Likenesses are deeply personal and often deal with issues of loss, longing, and the search for meaning in life. Many of the poems are also deeply religious in nature, reflecting Rossetti's strong Christian faith. The collection includes some of Rossetti's most well-known works, such as ""Goblin Market"" and ""In the Bleak Midwinter.""
