  • Christina Rossetti. Poetry, Ecology, Faith. Oxford University Press, 2018. 230p. Hardback. Series: Spiritual Lives. The brilliance of this book rests in no small measure on Mason's accomplishment as literary critic, biographer and theologian. Her analysis, in chapter 1, of the influence of the Cappadocians and of key Anglo-Catholic thinkers on Rossetti is an object lesson in patient, sympathetic analysis. Equally, Mason's reminder that Rossetti was - despite popular views - no quiet and lonely poet will surprise some readers. I hope that readers will be energised by Mason's challenge to re-engage with the theological and environmental radicalism of Rossetti and wider Victorian Christian culture.
