The Lottery

I picked The Lottery because it has a couple of symbols. The main symbol was the box. It symbolized death. The sheet of paper with the dot was also a symbolism for being chosen. If you were to open the box and get the dot you would be stoned to death. Another symbol was the paint coming off which lead to the question of should the tradtion leave as well. One more symbol was the old man, it showed that you cant give away the tradtion because it has been there for all he can remebered, and people just like him could remeber. So in the lottery it was multiple symbolism.
