The Lottery by Shirley Jackson was published in 1948 to public outrage. People were horrified that Shirley Jackson seemed to suggest that honest, decent, friendly folk could sit by and let such horrors happen in their own community. The Lottery is Shirley Jackson's minor masterpiece. Minor only in the sense it is short! And it is horrifying, but not in a blood and gore kind of horror.

If you haven't heard this before, it will shock you. The Lottery shows how horror can still be literature.
