Murder, blackmail, a femme fatale and switched identities ... just everyday problems for Hank Janson. With their erotic pin-up covers and hardboiled crime tales, the Hank Janson pulp paperback novels were a British publishing sensation in the 1940s and 1950s, selling millions of copies to readers craving escapism from post-war austerity. Prosecutions under Britain's then-harsh obscenity laws dealt them a severe blow, however, and today they are highly sought-after by collectors. This Telos edition of Skirts Bring Me Sorrow reinstates the previously-unpublished original cover artwork by Reginald Heade, which was censored when the novel first appeared in 1951. Includes an introduction by pulp historian and writer Steve Holland.
