The Lottery by Shirley JacksonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I love these short stories that are so readily available on the internet!
A lot of social commentary in this short, six-page story. Well written. It drags it out a bit but it's never dull, just portrays that classic small town camaraderie.
It certainly spurns the imagination on, wondering why this is happening, and if there is actually any purpose to it or if it's just a deeply ingrained tradition.
Plenty of literary devices for the English teachers to go nuts with!
