'Love knows many faces'
". . . you must realise that from what we both have seen, John and Jilly are both very much in love with each other. People call it incest when brothers and sisters treat each other as lovers, but from what I've seen, and not only in their case, it is dangerous for anyone, whether parent or relation or outsider, to speak of this, because the division between the feeling of lovers and the feeling of brother and sister, especially in a case like this when they are twins, is a thing so delicate and subtle, and a thing so criss-crossed with emotional complications that it requires extremely cautious and careful handling". [All or Nothing, Page 200](John Cowper Powys)

'Love knows many faces' is an ongoing, infinite vicious circle of love and hate between twins. In this case it is not a lesbian love but a love which goes much deeper than that with all the gloomy sides which go with it....
