When utilizing the queer perspective, but more specifically, the lesbian perspective to analyze Christina Rosetti’s “Goblin Market” one can see how the two main character’s showcase their true sexuality opposed to the normal heterosexual view which this text normally seems to portray. Through a lesbian perspective I was able to interpret this text as a submission to heterosexual norms in order to succeed although their true sexuality is in opposition to this. The overall text reflects society today in which many individuals who do not fit into hetersexual soceity feel as if they have to hide who they are behind closed doors. Just as Laura and Lizzie portray in the story, although the two sisters may come off as heterosexual in the light of other perspectives their true sexuality is within each other. Essentially, Lesbian criticism sheds light on Laura and Lizzie’s true sexuality which opposes heterosexual norms.
