The main characters of the short story "The Lottery," by Shirley Jackson are:
- Mr. Summers and Mr. Graves, who prepare the paper slips for all the families of the village.
- Bill Hutchinson, whose family has been chosen.
- Tessie Huchinson, Bill's wife, who is picked to be stoned to death.
The tone of the story "Talk" by Harold Courlander and George Herzog is humorous. The story revolves around a farmer being first frightened by the talking yam whom he wants to dig, followed by the dog who told him to listen to the yam, then the palm tree who warned him not to cut its branch. The farmer ran off meeting a fisherman who also ran off hearing the fish trap talk. They come across a weaver whose bundle of cloth talked and then ran with them together. The story is really funny because of the talking characters in the story including the stool in the chief's house.
