House and Guardians
by Kyla Ward
First Appeared in Tabula Rasa#7
I took my coffee into the dining room and settled down with the morning paper. A woman in New York had had twins in a taxi. A woman in Ohio had just had her seventeenth child. A twelve-year-old girl in Mexico had given birth to a thirteen-pound boy. The lead article on the woman's page was about how to adjust the older child to the new baby. I finally found an account of an axe murder on page seventeen, and held my coffee cup up to my face to see if the steam might revive me. Life Among the Savages
Shirley Jackson, 1953 The Sundial, Ace Books, 1958 Shirley Jackson is a contradiction, or perhaps just the other side of the idea of an author who fails to make any impression during their lifetime, and is only later discovered by a new generation. Ms Jackson is an author who was successful both popularly and critically in her short working life, who is now almost forgotten, a thing both unreasonable and criminal. And the most intriguing part is you likely have encountered her work, but still don't know her name. This shall be remedied.

9 Magic Wishes
- Book Review, by Jackson, Shirley
From Publishers Weekly
From School Library Journal
From Booklist

Ages 5-7. The writer of The Lottery and The Haunting of Hill House first published this sweetly surreal story in 1963. Here, it's illustrated anew by her grandson. Hyman's carefully rendered images have the rich and glowing texture of pastels and anchor the fanciful text. On a day when the sky is green and the sun is blue, a little girl sees a magician on her street who offers her nine wishes. Each wish is faithfully imagined on the page opposite the text: an orange pony with a purple tail flies over a field of sunflowers; a garden of candy flowers shows just the bottom half of the child, reaching on tiptoe for a candy cane from the candy cane tree. Although the magician offers her the last, ninth wish, she says that she has nothing more to wish for, so he places a box with the wish on a rock for someone else to find. Then, he turns into an autumn leaf, "and the wind blew him away." Oddly charming. GraceAnne DeCandido

Shirley Jackson
Shirley Jackson December 14 August 8 ) was an american author who wrote short stories and novels. Her most famous work is her short story "The Lottery", which combines a bucolic small-town-America setting with a horrific shock ending. The tone of most of her works is odd and macabre, with an impending sense of doom, often framed by very ordinary settings and characters. Born in San Francisco California , she graduated from Syracuse University in . While a student there, she met future husband Stanley Edgar Hyman, who was to become a noted literary critic. In addition to her novels , Jackson also wrote a children's novel, Nine Magic Wishes, available in an edition illustrated by her grandson Miles Hyman. She also wrote two humorous memoirs, Raising Demons and Life Among the Savages, about her marriage and the experience of bringing up four children . After her death, her husband released her final unfinished novel, Come Along With Me, containing several chapters of her final work as well as several rare short stories and three speeches given by Jackson in her writing seminars. In , a crate of unpublished stories was found in the barn behind Jackson's house. These stories were published in a collection titled

http://www.salon.com/jan97/jackson970106.html
A new collection of unpublished stories
betrays the two faces of Shirley Jackson,
the writer who created "The Lottery." By JONATHAN LETHEM "The Lottery," of course, the story everyone knows even if they don't remember Shirley Jackson's name. A small New England town, blandly familiar in every way, sleepwalking its way through ritual murder. Likely the most controversial piece of fiction ever published in the New Yorker, resulting in hundreds of canceled subscriptions, later adapted for television, radio and ballet, it now resides in the popular imagination as an archetype. It can be as difficult to persuade readers that the story is just one sheaf in the portfolio of one of this century's most luminous and strange American writers as it is to explain that the town portrayed in "The Lottery" is a real one. The town hasn't changed, or at least it hadn't by the mid- eighties, when I was a student at the school. A handful of the townspeople portrayed in thin disguise in Jackson's novels and stories were still around. I knew the square where "The Lottery" takes place. It was Jackson's fate, as a faculty wife and an eccentric newcomer in a staid, insular village, to absorb the reflexive antisemitism and anti-intellectualism felt by the townspeople toward the college. She and her children were accessible in a way that her husband and his colleagues and students, who spent their days on the campus, were not. The hostility of the villagers further shaped her psyche, and her art; the process eventually redoubled so the latter fed the former. After the enormous success of "The Lottery," a legend arose in town, almost certainly false, that Jackson had been pelted with stones by schoolchildren one day, then gone home and written the story. The real crisis came near the end of her life, resulting in a period of agoraphobia and psychosis; she wrote her way through it in "We Have Always Lived in the Castle." In that novel, Jackson brilliantly isolates the two aspects in her psyche into two odd, damaged sisters: one hypersensitive and afraid, unable to leave the house, the other a sort of squalid demon prankster who may or may not have murdered the rest of her family for her fragile sister's sake. For me, it is that unique and dreamlike book, rather than "The Lottery," that stands as her masterpiece.

Genre Short Story (8 pp. in alternate source) Keywords Doctor-Patient Relationship Literary Theory Medical Education Medical Mistakes ... Society Summary Villagers gather together in the central square for the annual lottery. There is much excitement and interest as the rituals of the event proceed. The familiar discussion of current and everyday happenings in village life is intermingled with commentary on the traditional and modern ways of holding the lottery, as well as observation of the particularities of this year's proceedings. Finally a winning family is chosen by ballot, and from that family a winning memberMrs. Hutchinson. Mrs. Hutchinson is then stoned by the villagers, including her family members. Commentary This masterful short story initially deceives, then shocks the reader into the realization of the dynamics of scapegoating. Its value lies in this narrative technique which dramatically engages the reader in the textual process such that the reader participates in the act of scapegoating through identification with the townspeople. At the same time as (s)he comes to this realization, (s)he is struck by the perils of too early closure on the interpretation of a narrative.

20. Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery"
Essay by Peter Kosenko from the New Orleans Review.
http://www.netwood.net/~kosenko/jackson.html
A Reading of Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" The following essay was published in the New Orleans Review , vol. 12, no. 1 (Spring 1985), pp. 27-32. Students and teachers are free to copy and quote it for scholarly purposes, but publishers should contact me before they reprint it for profit. Students should discuss the essay with each other and in their classrooms. Please do not ask me to answer your classroom essay questions for you; it defeats the purpose of your instructor having given you the assignment. In her critical biography of Shirley Jackson, Lenemaja Friedman notes that when Shirley Jackson's story "The Lottery" was published in the June 28, 1948 issue of the New Yorker it received a response that "no New Yorker story had ever received": hundreds of letters poured in that were characterized by "bewilderment, speculation, and old-fashioned abuse." It is not hard to account for this response: Jackson's story portrays an "average" New England village with "average" citizens engaged in a deadly rite, the annual selection of a sacrificial victim by means of a public lottery, and does so quite deviously: not until well along in the story do we suspect that the "winner" will be stoned to death by the rest of the villagers. One can imagine the average reader of Jackson's story protesting: But we engage in no such inhuman practices. Why are you accusing us of
