The Lottery
By Shirley Jackson
Reflection Questions
1 1. Is the lottery a collective act
of murder? Is it morally justified? Is tradition sufficient justification for
such actions? How would you respond to cultures that are different from ours
that perform "strange" rituals?
2. Were you surprised by the ending of the story? If not, at what
point did you know what was going to happen? How does Jackson foreshadow the
ending?
