david611 's review for:
The Lottery and Other Stories
by Shirley Jackson
Average rating: 2.3
This book did not work for me. Most of the stories in this collection for me turned out rated between 1.5 and 3, with only four stories at that maximum.
Part of the disappointment is due to my expectation of the stories being in the typical horror category. But they weren't so. It is possible that I may have missed a point, and might need a reread. The stories did contain characters with wicked attitudes or wicked situations, but that was it. Perhaps most of the stories are more relevant, and will be more understood by a Westerner or an American.
