lightbirdTitle/Link: Why one small American town won’t stop stoning its residents to death
Fandom(s): The Lottery - Shirley Jackson/The New Yorker RPF
Character(s): Isaac Chotiner, Mr. Summers
Words: 1,082
Summary: The picturesque village of Buell, Maine is one of the last in the United States to continue the tradition of the “harvest” or “prosperity” lottery. Its residents insist the lottery makes them stronger, even as condemnation from outsiders grows.
This is a terrific fic in which Isaac Chotiner interviews the guy who runs the lottery in Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery".
