After watching a boxing match between two angry dwarves, Dan Moore yells "Jesus was once a leper!" in one story in this collection. In addition to "Box Seat," it includes stories about Esther, who loves the mystic King Barlo, and Becky, who is shunned for bearing mulatto sons. Another story in it describes "Seventh Street," which infuses "black reddish blood into the white and whitewashed wood of Washington," and a white mob burns Tom Burwell alive for killing Bob Stone in its story "Blood-Burning Moon." Its author's time in rural Georgia inspired its final section, "Kabnis." Beginning with a story describing the beauty of Karintha and a poem about the "Black Reapers" of the title plant, FTP, name this modernist collection of short stories and poems by Jean Toomer.
