The white part of town and the black part.
Quentin's house and Mr. Lovelady's house.
Mr. Stovall's home and the bank where he works.
Q. What strange thing does Nancy do with her hands?
She cuts them with one of Jesus' razors.
She lets the lamp and the fire burn them.
She covers her eyes for hours.
She plays with a yo-yo.
Q. What's the point of Jesus carrying the razor in his shirt?
He wants to be able to kill himself if necessary.
He wants to remember his father's gift.
He's prepared to fight.
He's a walking advertisement for a razor manufacturer.
