Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Pryor, Adel. Out of the Night: A Nun's Story. Grand Rapids, Michigan: Zondervan Publishing House, 1971. Second Printing of the Paperback Edition (First issued 1969). 12mo, pictorial wraps, 188 pp. A poignant work of mid-century Christian fiction, Out of the Night tells the story of Sister Marguerite, a young nun in South Africa torn between her vows and forbidden love for a priest. As she confronts the tension between duty and devotion, Adel Pryor explores themes of faith, temptation, and redemption with an emotional depth rare for evangelical paperbacks of the era. Issued as part of Zondervan's 'Best Selling Fiction in Paper' line, this edition captures the distinctive 1960s-70s intersection of moral drama and missionary narrative that characterized the publisher's fiction program. This copy represents the second printing of the paperback edition (1971) as stated on the copyright page ('First printing of paperback edition 1969; Second printing 1971') and retains the 95¢ cover price. Bound in illustrated cream wraps with painted portraits and stylized title type, with catalog number No. 10599p listed on rear panel. Former church library copy, with 'Church of the Brethren' stamp to front endpaper and pocket with checkout card at rear.

Adel Pryor was an American author of mid-20th-century Christian novels, publishing with leading evangelical presses such as Zondervan. Her fiction often centers on moral and spiritual transformation within settings of missionary service or religious vocation. Out of the Night, her best-known work, reflects the publisher's emphasis on stories of inner faith tested by human emotion and choice - a theme resonant with readers of postwar Protestant fiction.
