The Lottery and Other Stories by Shirley Jackson

The Lottery and Other Stories by Shirley Jackson

A village gathers on a summer morning for its annual lottery. The children collect stones. Everyone is cheerful. The New Yorker published it in 1948 and received more mail about it than about anything else it had ever printed, much of it furious.

The other twenty-four stories are less famous and almost as unsettling. Jackson's subject is the ordinary cruelty of respectable people — a demon lover who does not arrive, a woman losing her identity in a department store, casual racism at a suburban lunch — and almost nothing supernatural is required.

The finest short story collection in American horror, and a permanent fixture on syllabuses.
