William Michael Rossetti (1829–1919) made himself the diarist, chronicler and champion of one of the most creative Victorian families. This two-volume memoir of 1906 provides an unparalleled glimpse into the dynamics of the Rossettis, covering his own childhood and that of his siblings, the genesis of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, and friendships with such outstanding figures as Morris, Burne-Jones, Swinburne and the Brownings. In fact, many of the members of the Victorian art and literary world make an appearance at some point in these volumes. But what is so engaging about the work is the way in which William Michael treats these personalities straightforwardly and unpretentiously. Especially fascinating are the observations that deal with intimate family details, his thoughts about brother Dante Gabriel and his attitude to sister Christina as her work developed. Though what he says is not always completely candid, his remarks remain uniquely informed, subtle and telling.

The book ""Letters of William Michael Rossetti: Concerning Whitman, Blake and Shelley"" is a collection of personal letters written by William Michael Rossetti, a prominent writer and art critic of the Victorian era. The letters in this book discuss the works of three influential poets: Walt Whitman, William Blake, and Percy Bysshe Shelley. Rossetti's letters provide a unique insight into the thoughts and opinions of a contemporary critic on the works of these poets. He discusses the themes, style, and literary techniques used by each poet, as well as their impact on the literary world. The book is divided into three sections, each focusing on one of the poets. The first section contains letters discussing the works of Walt Whitman, the American poet who was a controversial figure in his time due to his unconventional style and subject matter. The second section focuses on William Blake, the English poet and artist who is known for his visionary and mystical works. The final section is dedicated to Percy Bysshe Shelley, the English Romantic poet who is famous for his lyrical and political works. Overall, this book provides a fascinating glimpse into the literary world of the Victorian era and the critical reception of some of the most influential poets of the time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the works of Whitman, Blake, or Shelley, as well as for those interested in the history of literary criticism.
