Publisher's Synopsis
Who was the Victorian Woman? The popular myth that she was the Angel in the house', the loving wife, caring mother, in possession of neither opinions nor passions is one that if not already exploded, will certainly vanish with a reading of this delightful anthology. This collection offers familiar favourites such as Christina Rossetti's 'Up-hill' and 'A Birthday' and Emily Jane Bronte's 'Remembrance' as well as poems by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, George Eliot and Edith Nesbit.'
