San Francisco: Limestone Press, 1989. Gunther Gerzso has created a stunning frontispiece color etching for Octavio Paz's poem. Printed in letterpress, Paz's poem is presented in both English and Spanish. The English is printed in black while the Spanish is printed in scarlet red creating (truncated) a very dramatic visual effect since the two languages are each printed on the same page.
