The Lottery

The Lottery, most people think this is a great thing to win but not this lottery. When the silence falls upon the crowd it because they are finding out who is going to be stoned to death. When the town goes silent and motionless you think it is because they are praying that there family did not win the lottery. The first foreshadowing is when Mrs.Hutchinson walks in late to the lottery picking. Another foreshadowing is when Mrs.Hutchinson tries to convince everyone that her husband was rushed into picking, so that they can do a re pick. There was a lot of foreshadowing in this book but the last one I am going to mention is that Mrs.Hutchison acted like she forgot that the lottery picking was that day, and also she made up excuses saying "Wouldn't have me leave m'dishes in the sink, now, Would you?"
