TODAY: In 1948, Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery" is published in The New Yorker.
I never even knew that's where it was first published!
--- End quote ---
Neat!
Now that you mention it, I think I read that somewhere--I mean, that the story was first published in TNY--but I don't remember where that was. It was probably somewhere in TNY itself.
CellarDweller:
I remember reading that story. creepy.
serious crayons:
We should have mentioned that in our discussion of things everyone reads in high school.
CellarDweller:
Yeah, we should've!
Front-Ranger:
That discussion is still going on! I haven't had a chance to weigh in with my latest thoughts on it, or even to thank you all for contributing.
