hirley Jackson''s chilling dystopian story, "The Lottery," is rife with conflict. As a cautionary tale, "The Lottery" is just as effective in modern times as in 1948 (pages 334-343)

Flannery O''Connor''s dark tale, "A Good Man is Hard to Find," established her as a respected author of everyday conflicts in Southern life. You might be surprised to consider who the real villain is in this religious-infused story of sin and corruption (pages 295-309)
