Compare and contrast how the structures used in the lottery and glass of milk?

In "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson, the structure is linear and builds tension through a seemingly normal village setting that culminates in a shocking climax. The story uses a straightforward narrative to gradually reveal the dark tradition of the lottery, emphasizing the contrast between the ordinary and the horrific. In contrast, "A Glass of Milk" by Pedro Pablo Sacristán employs a more introspective structure, focusing on the internal thoughts and emotions of the protagonist as he experiences hunger and desperation. While both stories build towards critical moments, "The Lottery" relies on societal critique, whereas "A Glass of Milk" highlights personal struggle and compassion.
