One of the most terrifying stories of the twentieth century, Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery” created a sensation when it was first published in The New Yorker in 1948.
"Power and haunting," and "nights of unrest" were typical reader responses. Today it is considered a classic work of short fiction, a story remarkable for its combination of subtle suspense and pitch-perfect descriptions of both the chilling and the mundane.
The Lottery and Other Stories, the only collection of stories to appear during Shirley Jackson's lifetime, unites "The Lottery" with twenty-four equally unusual short stories. Together they demonstrate Jackson's remarkable range―from the hilarious to the horrible, the unsettling to the ominous―and her power as a storyteller.

人性恶之章

早上上课无聊看完了The Lottery,恐怖文学往往手法类似,轻描淡写祥和安定的背后,隐藏着惊心动魄的杀机与毛骨悚然,并且用冷静克制的笔锋,回避着真相,直到最后一刻才暴露出来

看到结尾毛骨悚然,对集体社会和民主的绝佳讽刺。不论是怎样由多数人统治的民主社会,人内心的善恶都不会改变。而在作者眼里,人性无疑是恶的。对他人苦难的袖手旁观,或是投以石头取之性命。很少这么说,但是我认为是必读的短篇小说,总是我个人对这种揭露人性之丑恶的作品非常喜欢。

泛读课材料。结局很让人意外,原本没意识到lottery 的结果会是如何,没想到结局如此冷峻暴力。联想到的是路西法效应……

除了成名作 the Lottery,其他都很平淡甚至感觉名不副实。个别比如 Of Course 难得看到雪莉冷幽默的一面。就如短篇里大同小异的女主角一样,雪莉本人乖僻的性格与封闭的人生也造就她的文学成就的局限。

婚姻中家庭主妇,少女,母亲,各种女性仿佛都笼罩在令人窒息的阴影中。好神奇的写法,每一篇小故事读着读着就能让人从开头的普通日常情景陷入到作者设定好的那种绝望情绪中。
