Stones hit the drum,
A cut off cry of dissent,
As The Lottery ends.

A letter by Shirley Jackson written to a snarky reader about Jackson's story "The Lottery.". It reads: "Dear Mrs. White, If you don't like my peaches, don't shake my tree. Sincerely, Shirley Jackson"

Shirley Jackson went to my High School. Not at all surprised that living in Rochester, NY inspired such a dark story.

#Halloween #reads: 'La Lotería' by #ShirleyJackson 😱

Cuando #ShirleyJackson publicó su relato corto #LaLotería en el New Yorker, en junio de 1948, el diario recibió 300 cartas con opiniones muy negativas, que iban desde la protesta hasta la amenaza, pasando por la anulación de la suscripción.

I hope this is still required reading in high school and hasn’t been banned. It is one of my favorites and explains a lot about human nature.

Fiction, from 1948: “The people had done it so many times that they only half listened to the directions; most of them were quiet, wetting their lips, not looking around.”
