Story
A finalist for the National Book Award, Lost in the City features 15 poignant short stories, each set in Washington, D.C. Far removed from marble monuments and the offices of rich politicians, the nation's capital that Jones captures is inhabited by self-willed African-Americans struggling to live their lives as best they can.

Story
Henry Townsend, a black farmer, bootmaker, and former slave, has a fondness for Paradise Lost and an unusual mentor, William Robbins, perhaps the most powerful white man in antebellum Virginia's Manchester County. Under Robbins's tutelage, Henry becomes proprietor of his own plantation, as well as of his own slaves. When he dies, his widow Caldonia succumbs to profound grief, and things begin to fall apart.

Story
A lot can happen on the way from one place to another, especially when an overnight flight makes for an unexpected romantic encounter between strangers seated together; a trucker finds life beyond the ranch where he grew up; and a bored Midwestern housewife tries to escape Kansas City.

Story
In 14 sublime stories, Edward P. Jones turns an unflinching eye to the ordinary citizens of Washington, DC: men, women, and children caught between the old ways of the South and the temptations that await them in the city. With the legacy of slavery just a stone's throw behind them and the future uncertain, Jones' cornucopia of characters will haunt the reader for years to come.

Story
Das Leben des Sklaven Moses ist hart. Das ändert sich auch nicht, als sein Herr Henry Townsend, ein ehemaliger Sklave, der jedoch freigekauft wurde, stirbt. Schwere Misshandlungen und Mangelernährung sind noch immer an der Tagesordnung, und weiter arbeitet Moses 14 Stunden am Tag. Wenn er endlich zur Ruhe kommen kann, isst er die Erde des Ackers, um dessen Stärken und Schwächen zu schmecken. Dann bricht auf der Farm auf einmal Chaos aus – und alles ändert sich.
