About This Item

Gordon, Ian. The Night Thorn. New York: Popular Library 1953. Contains 192 pages, measures about 4.5" x 6.5." Classic pulp cover art by Rafael DeSoto presents a racially ambiguous woman sitting at a piano, while a white man smokes a cigarette and observes her from a distance. Tagline reads, "The Night Never Ends in Harlem." The Night Thorn is the story of a white-passing Black woman who conceals her true identity in order to stay with her lover, a racist Texan whose mind is "inflamed with the myth of white supremacy." Spine panel has small chipping to top and bottom; some creasing along edges of front cover; discoloration on back panel. Consistent toning throughout. Otherwise, brightly colored cover illustrations and very good condition.
