New Year's Day, 1933 in New York City and Max Disher, a young black man, has just found out that a certain Dr Junius Crookman has just discovered a mysterious process that allows people to bleach their skin white - a new way to 'solve the American race problem'. Max, who is tired of being rejected by women because of his dark skin, leaps at the chance. After a brief stay at the Crookman Sanitarium, where he receives the procedure, he becomes Matthew Fisher, a white man who is able to attain everything he has ever wanted: money, power, a beautiful wife and good liquor. But as America becomes whiter and whiter, it gets more and more dangerous.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

George S. Schuyler

George S. Schuyler (1895-1977) nasceu em Providence, Rhode Island, e, ainda adolescente, alistou-se no exército, onde chegou à patente de primeiro-tenente, antes de desertar devido a uma série de incidentes racistas. Instalou-se em Nova Iorque e trabalhou como jornalista na revista The Messenger, pertencente ao grupo socialista «Friends of Negro Freedom» (Amigos da Liberdade Negra). Mais tarde, escreveria para a revista The Nation e para os jornais The Washington Post e Pittsburgh Courier, tornando-se o primeiro jornalista negro de fama nacional nos EUA. Além de Negro Nunca Mais (1931), Schuyler escreveu o romance Slaves Today («Escravos de Hoje»), assim como várias novelas e uma autobiografia.
