    In “The Lottery” the characteristics describe it as a comedy. Even though the ending is tragic‚ the story contains no hero‚ and does not really teach a lesson. Rather it shows a culture of a village and it’s villagers. That leaning in culture shows more realistic‚ and more common language. Such as when Joe Summers enters the scene he says “Little late today‚ folks.” And when he needs help with carrying the black box he asks the Martins “Some of you fellows want to give me a hand?” This shows

    The Lottery

    • 635 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The Lottery by Shirley Jackson is a short story about a small town and their unique summer tradition. This stories thematic element is conformity and rebellion‚ showing “a clash between two well-articulated positions in which a rebel‚ on principle‚ confronts and struggles with established authority” (Abacarian and Klotz‚ 289). Jackson’s short story caught my attention through her suspenseful structural technique‚ and incorporation of a serious‚ seemingly absurd‚ event in a nonchalant manner.
