Pat de Groot didn’t like big roman caps, it seems. In this cover, all caps were scaled down considerably. Unfortunately, their weight is now too light, in relation to the lowercase. She would have loved a variable font with cap height (or x-height) axis! See also her title page design for a book by Tom Wolfe.
