Note
"Two Moons is the image of the young schizophrenic who figures in the final poem of this book. In a sense, all these poems are about people who live by the light of two moons. The nine mezzotints were inspired by primitive art, or by Nature at its most enigmatic. The Tempest, which is the most mystical of all Shakespeare's plays, provided the link passages. This edition of her mezzotints & poems, set and printed by Shirley Jones, in 18-point Gill Sans type, on Rives mould-made paper, is limited to 40 copies"--Colophon.
