.... about a person's underlying characteristics and, therefore, about his or her probable behavior. Thus, by wearing the veil, the minister takes away the basis on which people can predict his behavior.

Part of the frightening effect of the veil derives from the knowledge that the person behind it can see everything without being seen himself: "Each member of the congregation, the most innocent girl, and the man of hardened breast, felt as if the preacher had crept upon them, behind this awful veil, .....

.... That he still thinks that he can get away with this and that the thought police will never catch him.

.... them to bed, “ In his appearance, in his character, in his whole nature, there was something attractive and elusive which allured women and disposed then in his favour; he knew that, and some force seemed to draw him, too, to them.” This keeps life simple for him.

.... place in the town square, where family and friends are joined in tradition for the annual ‘lottery’. When given this setting, the ending of the story turns out to be a big surprise for the reader. The author’s diction in The Lottery also plays a large role in the atmosphere and mood of the story.

Similarly, Lord Dunsany creates mood and atmosphere in his story The Gh .....
