Shirley Jackson – The Lottery
Only 1 left in stock
$8.00
“”Power and haunting,” and “nights of unrest” were typical reader responses. Today it is considered a classic work of short fiction, a story remarkable for its combination of subtle suspense and pitch-perfect descriptions of both the chilling and the mundane. The Lottery and Other Stories, the only one to appear during Shirley Jackson’s lifetime, unites “The Lottery” with twenty-four equally unusual short stories. Together they demonstrate Jackson’s remarkable range — from the hilarious to the horrible, the unsettling to the ominous — and her power as a storyteller.”
Bard, 1971 Mass-Market Paperback edition. Wear to wraps and along spine. Glue to wraps seems to be degrading slightly but binding still firm
