(you can pick whatever Two you want to answer from the list below)

I attached the story

Read “The Lottery” Questions to consider:

 Were you shocked at the conclusion? If you knew the story beforehand, you may have remembered what was coming. Nevertheless, the final scene is a morbid (or is it?) depiction of “human nature” in action (or is it?)

 Examine the use of names; how do they connect to the story’s themes or ideas? WHAT is the primary theme (for you)?

 Can you consider what the story might mean in 1948, its date of publication? What had just happened, globally?

 Jackson received lots of hate mail when she published this story. Speculate why. She also got calls from people who believed the setting was a real place and wanted directions to it (!!) Is it, in some ironic way, a REAL place??

 Any parallels today? If so, how?

 The story preceding this, “A Party Down at the Square” by Ralph Ellison (p. 207) is a fitting story to pair with this; consider writing a comparison/ contrast paper for an essay
