The couple settled in North Bennington, Vermont, in 1945, later the nascence of their first kid, when Hyman joined the faculty of Bennington College.^[viii]

After publishing her debut novel The Route Through the Wall (1948), a semi-autobiographical account of her childhood in California, Jackson gained significant public attention for her short story "The Lottery", which presents the sinister underside of a bucolic American village. She continued to publish numerous brusque stories in literary journals and magazines throughout the 1950s, some of which were assembled and reissued in her 1953 memoir Life Among the Savages. In 1959, she published The Haunting of Hill Firm, a supernatural horror novel widely considered to be one of the best ghost stories ever written.^[a] Jackson's 1962 novel Nosotros Take Always Lived in the Castle is a Gothic mystery which has been described as Jackson'south masterpiece.^[9]

By the 1960s, Jackson'southward wellness began to deteriorate significantly, ultimately leading to her death due to a heart status in 1965 at the age of 48.

Early life [edit]

Jackson was born December fourteen, 1916,^{[10] [11]} in San Francisco, California, to Leslie Jackson and his wife Geraldine (née Bugby).^{[12] [b]}

Jackson was raised in Burlingame, California, an affluent suburb of San Francisco, where her family resided in a 2-story brick domicile located at 1609 Forest View Road.^[14] Her relationship with her mother was strained, as her parents had married young and Geraldine had been disappointed when she immediately became pregnant with Shirley, as she had been looking forrad to "spending time with her dashing husband".^[xv] Jackson was oft unable to fit in with other children and spent much of her time writing, much to her female parent's distress. Geraldine made no attempt to hide her favoritism towards her son, Barry, who explained his mother's animosity towards Shirley by saying, "[Geraldine] was just a securely conventional adult female who was horrified by the thought that her daughter was not going to be securely conventional."^[sixteen] When Shirley was a teenager, her weight fluctuated, resulting in a lack of confidence that she would struggle with throughout her life.^{[17] [18]}

She attended Burlingame High School, where she played violin in the schoolhouse orchestra.^[19] During her senior year of high school, the Jackson family relocated to Rochester, New York,^[19] afterwards which she attended Brighton Loftier School, receiving her diploma in 1934.^[twenty] She and then attended the nearby University of Rochester, where her parents felt they could maintain supervision over her studies.^[21] Jackson was unhappy in her classes in that location,^{[22] [2]} and took a year-long hiatus from her studies before transferring to Syracuse Academy, where she flourished both creatively and socially.^[23] Here she received her bachelor's degree in journalism.^[24] While a student at Syracuse, Jackson became involved with the campus literary magazine, through which she met her future husband, Stanley Edgar Hyman, who later became a noted literary critic.^[25] While attending Syracuse, the academy's literary magazine published Jackson'due south first story, "Janice", virtually a teenager'south suicide attempt.^[26]

Ancestry [edit]

Jackson was of English ancestry,^[27] and her mother Geraldine traced her family heritage to the Revolutionary State of war hero General Nathanael Greene.^[28] Jackson'south maternal great-grandfather, John Stephenson, had been a prominent lawyer in San Francisco—later a Superior Court Judge in Alaska^[29]—while her great-bang-up grandfather was Samuel Charles Bugbee, an architect whose works included the homes of Leland Stanford and Charles Crocker and the Mendocino Presbyterian Church building.^{[30] [17] [31] [32] [33]} Jackson said:

My grandfather was an builder, and his male parent, and his begetter. One of them congenital houses but for millionaires in California and that's where the family wealth came from, and one of them was certain that houses could be made to stand on the sand dunes of San Francisco, and that's where the family wealth went.^[34]

Jackson'south maternal grandmother, nicknamed "Mimi", was a Christian Science practitioner who continued to practice spiritual healing on members of the family later her retirement. Jackson was known to critically assess such attempts, recounting a time when Mimi claimed to have broken her leg and healed information technology through prayer overnight, though she had really simply lightly sprained her ankle. When Mimi died, Jackson told her daughter that she "died of Christian Science."^[16] While she believed that organized religion could hands get a vehicle for harm, the religious influences from her childhood are clear in Jackson's writing, which includes themes of mysticism, mental power, and witchcraft.^[16]

Union [edit]

After graduating, Jackson and Hyman married in 1940, and had brief sojourns in New York Urban center and Westport, Connecticut, ultimately settling in N Bennington, Vermont,^[35] where Hyman had been hired as an teacher at Bennington College.^[36] Jackson began writing material as Hyman established himself as a critic. Jackson and Hyman were known for beingness colorful, generous hosts who surrounded themselves with literary talents, including Ralph Ellison.^[37] They were both enthusiastic readers whose personal library was estimated at 25,000 books.^[38] They had four children, Laurence (Laurie), Joanne (Jannie), Sarah (Sally), and Barry, who afterwards achieved their own brand of literary fame as fictionalized versions of themselves in their mother'southward short stories. In an era when women were not encouraged to work exterior the home, Jackson became the master breadwinner while also raising the couple'southward children.^[viii] "She did piece of work hard," her son Laurence said. "She was e'er writing, or thinking about writing, and she did all the shopping and cooking, besides. The meals were ever on time. But she likewise loved to laugh and tell jokes. She was very buoyant that style." For examples of her wit, he refers readers to her many humorous cartoons, one of which depicts a husband cautioning a wife not to bear heavy things during pregnancy, but not offering to assistance.^{[39] [xl]}

Co-ordinate to Jackson's biographers, her marriage was plagued by Hyman's infidelities, notably with his students, and she reluctantly agreed to his proposition of maintaining an open relationship.^[41] Hyman also controlled their finances (meting out portions of her earnings to her as he saw fit), despite the fact that after the success of "The Lottery" and later work she earned far more than he did.^[42]

Writing career [edit]

"The Lottery" and early publications [edit]

In 1948, Jackson published her debut novel, The Road Through the Wall, which tells a semi-autobiographical account of her childhood growing up in Burlingame, California, in the 1920s. Jackson's most famous story, "The Lottery", first published in The New Yorker on June 26, 1948, established her reputation every bit a chief of the horror tale. The story prompted over 300 letters from readers,^[44] many of them outraged at its conjuring of a nighttime aspect of human being nature,^[43] characterized by, as Jackson put it, "bewilderment, speculation, and old-fashioned abuse".^[45] In the July 22, 1948, issue of the San Francisco Chronicle, Jackson offered the following in response to persistent queries from her readers virtually her intentions: "Explaining just what I had hoped the story to say is very difficult. I suppose I hoped, past setting a particularly brutal ancient rite in the present and in my ain village, to shock the story'south readers with a graphic dramatization of the pointless violence and general inhumanity in their own lives."^[46]

The critical reaction to the story was unequivocally positive; the story apace became a standard in anthologies and was adapted for television in 1952.^[47] In 1949, "The Lottery" was published in a short story collection of Jackson'southward titled The Lottery and Other Stories.^[48]

Jackson'due south second novel, Hangsaman (1951), contained elements similar to the mysterious real-life Dec 1, 1946, disappearance of an 18-year-old Bennington Higher sophomore Paula Jean Welden. This upshot, which remains unsolved to this day, took place in the wooded wilderness of Glastenbury Mount nearly Bennington in southern Vermont, where Jackson and her family were living at the time. The fictional higher depicted in Hangsaman is based in part on Jackson'southward experiences at Bennington Higher, every bit indicated by Jackson's papers in the Library of Congress.^{[49] [50]} The result also served as inspiration for her short story "The Missing Girl" (start published in The Magazine of Fantasy and Scientific discipline Fiction in 1957, and posthumously in Simply an Ordinary Twenty-four hour period [1996]).

The following year, she published Life Among the Savages, a semi-autobiographical collection of curt stories based on her own life with her 4 children,^[51] many of which had been published prior in popular magazines such as Good Housekeeping, Woman's Day and Collier's.^[47] Semi-fictionalized versions of her spousal relationship and the feel of bringing up four children, these works are "truthful-to-life funny-housewife stories" of the type later popularized by such writers as Jean Kerr and Erma Bombeck during the 1950s and 1960s.^[52]

Reluctant to discuss her work with the public, Jackson wrote in Stanley J. Kunitz and Howard Haycraft's Twentieth Century Authors (1955):^[53]

I very much dislike writing well-nigh myself or my work, and when pressed for autobiographical material can only give a blank chronological outline which contains, naturally, no pertinent facts. I was built-in in San Francisco in 1919 [sic] and spent nigh of my early on life in California. I was married in 1940 to Stanley Edgar Hyman, critic and numismatist, and we live in Vermont, in a quiet rural community with fine scenery and comfortably far away from metropolis life. Our major exports are books and children, both of which we produce in affluence. The children are Laurence, Joanne, Sarah, and Barry: my books include three novels, The Road Through the Wall, Hangsaman, The Bird's Nest and a collection of short stories, The Lottery. Life Amid the Savages is a disrespectful memoir of my children.

"The persona that Jackson presented to the world was powerful, witty, even imposing," wrote Zoë Heller in The New Yorker. "She could exist abrupt and aggressive with fey Bennington girls and salesclerks and people who interrupted her writing. Her letters are filled with tartly funny observations. Describing the bewildered response of The New Yorker readers to 'The Lottery,' she notes, 'The number of people who expected Mrs. Hutchinson to win a Bendix washing auto at the end would amaze yous.'"^[8]

The Haunting of Loma House and other works [edit]

In 1954, Jackson published The Bird'due south Nest (1954), which detailed a adult female with multiple personalities and her human relationship with her psychiatrist.^[54] Ane of Jackson's publishers, Roger Straus, deemed The Bird's Nest "a perfect novel", just the publishing house marketed information technology as a psychological horror story, which displeased her.^[55] Her following novel, The Sundial, was published 4 years later and concerned a family unit of wealthy eccentrics who believe they have been called to survive the end of the earth.^[56] She later published two memoirs, Life Amidst the Savages and Raising Demons.

Jackson's fifth novel, The Haunting of Hill House (1959), follows a group of individuals participating in a paranormal study at a reportedly haunted mansion.^[57] The novel, which interpolated supernatural phenomena with psychology,^[58] went on to become a critically esteemed case of the haunted house story,^{[43] [59]} and was described by Stephen King as ane of the well-nigh important horror novels of the twentieth century.^[lx] Also in 1959, Jackson published the 1-human activity children'due south musical The Bad Children, based on Hansel and Gretel.^[61]

Declining health and decease [edit]

By the time The Haunting of Colina Business firm had been published, Jackson suffered numerous health problems. She was a heavy smoker, which resulted in chronic asthma, joint hurting, exhaustion, and dizziness leading to fainting spells, which were attributed to a center problem.^[62] Near the end of her life, Jackson also saw a psychiatrist for severe feet, which had kept her housebound for extended periods of time, a problem worsened by a diagnosis of colitis, which fabricated information technology physically difficult to travel even brusque distances from her home.^[63] To ease her anxiety and agoraphobia, the doc prescribed barbiturates, which at that time were considered a safe, harmless drug.^[64] For many years, she as well had periodic prescriptions for amphetamines for weight loss, which may have inadvertently aggravated her anxiety, leading to a cycle of prescription drug corruption using the two medications to counteract each other'due south effects.^[65] Any of these factors, or a combination of all of them, may take contributed to her declining wellness.^[64] Jackson confided to friends that she felt patronized in her role as a "faculty wife", and ostracized past the townspeople of North Bennington. Her dislike of this situation led to her increasing abuse of alcohol in add-on to tranquilizers and amphetamines.^[66]

Despite her failing health, Jackson continued to write and publish several works in the 1960s, including her final novel, Nosotros Have Always Lived in the Castle (1962), a Gothic mystery novel.^[67] It was named by Time mag equally one of the "10 Best Novels" of 1962.^[67] The following yr, she published Nine Magic Wishes, an illustrated children's novel about a kid who encounters a magician who grants him numerous enchanting wishes.^[68] The psychological aspects of her illness responded well to therapy, and past 1964 she began to resume normal activities, including a round of speaking engagements at writers' conferences, besides as planning a new novel titled Come Forth with Me, which was to be a major departure from the style and bailiwick thing of her previous works.

In 1965, Jackson died in her sleep at her dwelling house in Northward Bennington, at the age of 48.^[69] Her death was attributed to a coronary apoplexy due to arteriosclerosis^[70] or cardiac arrest.^[71] She was cremated, as was her wish.^[72]

In 1968, Jackson'south husband released a posthumous volume of her work, Come Forth with Me, containing her unfinished terminal novel, as well as 14 previously uncollected short stories (among them "Louisa, Please Come Home") and three lectures she gave at colleges or writers' conferences in her last years.^[73]

A selection of those stories, along with previously uncollected stories from various magazines, were published in the 1996 volume Just an Ordinary Day.

In 2016, journalist Ruth Franklin published Shirley Jackson: A Rather Haunted Life, a biography examining the influence of Jackson's upbringing, union, and addictions upon her work, while positioning Jackson equally a major effigy in American literature and examiner of postwar American anxieties via "domestic horror." Franklin's biography would go on to receive the National Book Critics Circle Honour for Biography, the Edgar Laurels for Critical/Biographical Work, and the Bram Stoker Award for Best Non-Fiction.^[85] Franklin also wrote the foreword for the upcoming publication Shirley Jackson: A Companion. To exist published in 2021, this collection features comprehensive critical engagement with Jackson's works, including those that take received less scholarly attention.^[86]

Since at least 2015, Jackson's adopted home of North Bennington has honored her legacy by celebrating Shirley Jackson Day on June 27, the day the fictional story "The Lottery" took place.^[87]

Jackson has been cited as an influence on a various prepare of authors, including Neil Gaiman, Stephen King, Sarah Waters, Nigel Kneale, Claire Fuller, Joanne Harris,^[88] and Richard Matheson.^[89]

Critical assessment [edit]

Lenemaja Friedman's Shirley Jackson (Twayne Publishers, 1975) was the first published survey of Jackson'southward life and work. Judy Oppenheimer as well covers Shirley Jackson's life and career in Private Demons: The Life of Shirley Jackson (Putnam, 1988). S. T. Joshi's The Modern Weird Tale (2001) offers a critical essay on Jackson'south piece of work.^[90]

A comprehensive overview of Jackson'southward short fiction is Joan Wylie Hall's Shirley Jackson: A Report of the Short Fiction (Twayne Publishers, 1993).^[91] The just critical bibliography of Jackson's work is Paul Due north. Reinsch's A Disquisitional Bibliography of Shirley Jackson, American Writer (1919–1965): Reviews, Criticism, Adaptations (Lewiston, New York: Edwin Mellen Press, 2001).^{[92] [93]} Darryl Hattenhauer also provides a comprehensive survey of all of Jackson's fiction in Shirley Jackson'south American Gothic (State University of New York Press, 2003). Bernice Murphy'southward Shirley Jackson: Essays on the Literary Legacy (McFarland & Company, 2005) is a drove of commentaries on Jackson's work. Colin Hains's Frightened by a Word: Shirley Jackson & Lesbian Gothic (2007) explores the lesbian themes in Jackson's major novels.^[94]

According to the post-feminist critic Elaine Showalter, Jackson's piece of work is the single about of import mid-twentieth-century body of literary output yet to have its value reevaluated by critics.^[95] In a March 4, 2009, podcast distributed by the business organization publisher The Economist, Showalter as well noted that Joyce Ballad Oates had edited a collection of Jackson's work chosen Shirley Jackson Novels and Stories that was published in the ^{[96] [97]} Library of America series.^[98]

Oates wrote of Jackson's fiction: "Characterized by the caprice and fatalism of fairy tales, the fiction of Shirley Jackson exerts a mordant, hypnotic spell."^[99]

Jackson's husband wrote in his preface to a posthumous anthology of her work that "she consistently refused to be interviewed, to explain or promote her work in any fashion, or to take public stands and be the pundit of the Dominicus supplements. She believed that her books would speak for her clearly enough over the years".^[100] Hyman insisted that the dark visions establish in Jackson's work were not, as some critics claimed, the production of "personal, even neurotic, fantasies", but, rather, comprised "a sensitive and true-blue anatomy" of the Cold War era in which she lived, "fitting symbols for [a] lamentable globe of the concentration camp and the Bomb".^[101] Jackson may even take taken pleasure in the subversive touch of her piece of work, equally indicated by Hyman's statement that she "was always proud that the Matrimony of South Africa banned 'The Lottery', and she felt that they at least understood the story".^[101]

The 1980s witnessed considerable scholarly interest in Jackson's piece of work. Peter Kosenko, a Marxist critic, advanced an economic interpretation of "The Lottery" that focused on "the inequitable stratification of the social order".^[102] Sue Veregge Lape argued in her Ph.D. thesis that feminist critics who did not consider Jackson to be a feminist played a significant role in her lack of before disquisitional attention.^[103] In contrast, Jacob Appel has written that Jackson was an "anti-regionalist author" whose criticism of New England proved unpalatable to the American literary establishment.^[104]

In 2009, critic Harold Bloom published an all-encompassing report of Jackson'due south work, challenging the notion that it was worthy of inclusion in the Western canon; Flower wrote of "The Lottery", specifically: "Her art of narration [stays] on the surface, and could non describe individual identities. Even 'The Lottery' wounds yous once, and one time but."^[105]
