In this article, I examine the famous American short story "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson, first published in "The New Yorker" in 1949. Most have sought to explain this story in light of particular events in American history. By contrast, my interpretation underlines a more universal theme: the problem of evil.

Abstract

In this article, I examine the famous American short story "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson, first published in "The New Yorker" in 1949. Most have sought to explain this story in light of particular events in American history. By contrast, my interpretation underlines a more universal theme: the problem of evil.
