Christina Rossetti: The Patience of Style analyses the strengths and failures of her poetry, its attention to rhythm and the shifts of diction, its momentum and reserve, and the rationale for its revision. It also explores Rossetti's poetry for children, her reconfiguration of religion and poetry and the influences of female precursors she admired.
