Summary
Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" continues to thrill and unsettle readers nearly seven decades after it was first published. By turn puzzling and harrowing, "The Lottery" raises troubling questions about conformity, tradition, and the ritualized violence that may haunt even the most bucolic, peaceful village. This graphic adaptation by Jackson's grandson Miles Hyman allows readers to experience "The Lottery" as never before.
