"Unjustly neglected for over a century, Arthur O’Shaughnessy is an unusual Pre-Raphaelite poet whose unromantic day job as a taxonomist set him apart from his literary peers. However, as Kistler shows, his writings shed important light on the works of better-known contemporaries such as Rossetti, Morris, and Swinburne. Kistler reclaims and contextualizes his works for a twenty-first-century readership, demonstrating that O’Shaughnessy is a Victorian poet with something significant to say about his own period and modernity. Her book constitutes a valuable contribution to the study of Victorian poetry and extends our knowledge not only of O’Shaughnessy, but of the broader context that gave rise to the Arts and Crafts movement, Aestheticism and Decadence." - Patricia Pulham, University of Portsmouth, UK "Kistler does a great job of showing not only that O’Shaughnessy’s poetry is worth further exploration (and appreciation), but also why O’Shaughnessy is significant..." - Helena Ifill, University of Sheffield in The British Society for Literature and Science
