The Lottery, one of the most terrifying stories written in this century, created a sensation when it was first published in The New Yorker. "Power and haunting," and "nights of unrest" were typical reader responses.

Together they demonstrate Jack son's remarkable range--from the hilarious to the truly horrible--and power as a storyteller.

看似美好的lottery，结局出人意料
评分每一次翻页，都在期待另一个绝望。
评分一个那么凛冽，那么震撼的故事。一个我不喜欢的故事。却是必然让我思考的最多的故事。
评分泛读课材料。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……
评分很难找到比这还不搭的封面……
