Paper Summary:
This paper explains that Jorge Luis Borges is a novelist known for using subjects that question God's existence and essence of life and that these themes appear in his short story, "The Lottery in Babylon". The author points out that, in the story, which is told in the first person point-of-view, the narrator is part of what is happening within the story but, despite his understanding of the people, cannot fathom the addiction of the community people to the lottery. The paper relates that "Lottery in Babylon" is full of symbolism and metaphors. For example, the term 'lottery' represents taking chances and the term 'company' represents God. The paper includes several quotations.

From the Paper:
"Lottery, as seen by the narrator's eyes, has undergone various evolutions. First, it was just like a very simple game played by the commoners. Then, the number of people who loved playing it increases, hence the rules of the game was changed. At first, the lottery only involves rewards that would be received by, of course, the winner. But when the game was eventually changed, punishments and irrelevant rewards were introduced. When still more and more people continue playing the game, the rules regarding the people who could join the game also changed."
