The Lottery

There are a lot of things in the story that symbolize something such as the black box that was black and represents death. The stones are another big one because they were used in the end of the book to kill whoever won the lottery. They didn't have good leadership and that's why people were murdered because of the lottery. A woman named Tessie showed up later and ironically she was the one who won the lottery and got stoned to death.So for the next time you are late or speak when you shouldn't, remember karma will find you and hunt you down and you could end up dead or maybe you might just lose both of your hands.
