#OTD in 1916, the great #ShirleyJackson was born.

Here’s a little piece I wrote earlier this year about teaching Jackson’s remarkable novel #Hangsaman. It’s posted at “Reading Shirley Jackson in the 21st Century,” an online resource investigating the past and future landscapes of Shirley Jackson studies.

I’m looking forward to teaching #TheHauntingOfHillHouse in January!

#Hangsaman by #ShirleyJackson (1951)

Quote:
Poor things, she thought - do they have to spend all this energy just to surround me? It seemed pitiful that these automatons should be created and wasted, never knowing more than a minor fragment of the pattern in which they were involved, to learn and follow through insensitively a tiny step in the great dance which was seen close up as the destruction of Natalie, and far off, as the end of the world.

They had all earned their deaths, Natalie thought…
