This paper discusses Shirley Jackson's short story, "The Lottery", begins almost immediately when in the second paragraph Bobby Martin fills his pockets with the "smoothest and roundest stones" (292). Children often collect stones, but the fervor with which the children do so here leaves the reader pondering their purpose. Such is the nature of foreshadowing: to hint at or suggest a forthcoming event. The reader gets the strong sense that the stones will come into play, but at this point has little idea how.
