Hi, Subterraneanpress.com just posted a new Wolfe story. Should be an interesting read. Does anyone know if Wolfe plans to publish any books with Subterranean? It's a great small press, and I wouldn't mind seeing a Wolfe volume from them. -Matt _______________________________________________ Urth Mailing List To post, write urth at urth.net Subscription/information: http://www.urth.net
The epigraph is from a sonnet: Sonnet 144 Two loves I have, of comfort and despair Two loves I have of comfort and despair, Which like two spirits do suggest me still: The better angel is a man right fair, The worser spirit a woman colour'd ill. To win me soon to hell, my female evil Tempteth my better angel from my side, And would corrupt my saint to be a devil, Wooing his purity with her foul pride. And whether that my angel be turn'd fiend Suspect I may, but not directly tell; But being both from me, both to each friend, I guess one angel in another's hell: Yet this shall I ne'er know, but live in doubt, Till my bad angel fire my good one out.
