The Lottery

"The Lottery" written by Shirley Jackson is about a t town not like any other town in any state across the US. Except that it's residents are involved in a "lottery" that takes place once a year. Now when I think of a lottery, I think of someone winning something. Unlike the typical lottery this town holds a drawing where the winner, actually loses. Whom ever wins ultimately ends up getting stone by all of the other people who live in this town. There are people who would like to change this, but they can't it's just the way it has been.
