Interesting name "deathly hallows". Hallow means holy or revered, the root of Halloween. So it sounds like this may be en route to being a Halloween movie.

Actually, I like the JK Rowling site and the treasure hunt to open the pages. It seems like an interest in British old fashioned wizards and magic, with the Lord of the Ring and Harry Potter movies/books, have been big these last few years. Neither are my cup of tea but this post made me curious, so I Googled a bit to find out more about the lure of the Harry Potter phenom. I prefer the Star Wars, Spiderman and X Men movies for my blockbuster mythology.

I checked my dictionary (blows dust) and found out that 'hallow' means "The parts of the hare given to hounds as a reward or encouragement after a successful chase."

What with the other part, I can only presume Harry Potter's gone mad and is poisoning dogs. Or is uncovering a plot to poison dogs.

Bit of a let-down, really.

Yeah, that's true. I think it's partly that the series hooked a lot of adults in a way that most kid-lit does not, and that it's also hooked a lot of kids, AND that the books--initially, anyway--were held out as some kind of sign that the novel and reading weren't dead among the under-35 demo.

The thing is, I'm pretty much totally okay with the richest (non-royal) woman in England being a writer. Becoming a millionaire by writing books about the magic of friendship and also dragons is, at least in my mind, a lot more commendable than becoming a millionaire through inheritance or massive layoffs or most of the usual means. I've never read any of the books, but a fair amount of people seem to enjoy them, they get a whole lot of kids reading, and the movies are pretty good. Oh, and Wizard People, Dear Reader would never have existed were it not for H.P.!

Knocking Harry Potter as shallow literature is easy. Putting out a series of books that has masses of kids lining up, eager to plow through 600+ pages, isn't so easy, and isn't something that "literature" seems to be able to achieve. Rowing has done reading a great service.

Looks like I'm in the minority here, but after a couple of unsuccessful tries I got sucked into the series and found it good. Spectacular even, and every bit deserving of it's reputation. It starts off a bit shaky, but the writing improves, and the world grows in complexity and verisimilitude, as do the characters as the story progresses.

As everichon noted, it appeals to adults as well as children, because of the very adult world that one catches frequent glimpses of through the eyes of the juvenile protagonists. This is a crucial quality for great children's entertainment, that parents and children can share the experience and be equally entertained. The only other example I can think of that succeeds this well in the fantasy genre is The Hobbit, and that is exalted company.

I see for her three distinct possibilities after Harry Potter:

1. Begin a new franchise, try to catch lightening in a bottle twice.

2. Use her status as the idle wealthy to try to become a "serious" author and gain literary cred.

3. Enjoy her bajillion dollars buying a sex-mansion in Aruba and making the local 18-24 male population her concubines.

I hope it's the 3rd one, for all our sakes.

For a look into how crazed/devoted some of the fans of the book are, check out Mugglenet.

For a look at some surprisingly good (although unfinished) slash fiction (Harry/Snape), try Midnight Blue's Mirror of Maybe. (Warning: Very adult situations)

For other children's books that are also surprisingly good, try the Artemis Fowl series. There's even a relatively new one out. Nothing to do with assless chaps though...

Harry Potter and the go fuck yourself.

Yeah, I'm not trying.

I don't think that reading is dead for the under 35 demographic (as I am 30 and an English graduate student, and many of my 18-22 yr old students love reading), but I will say that I don't know how much Rowling's books encourage people to go out and read "great literature." I don't often agree with Harold Bloom, but he wrote an article a few years back slamming Rowling among others because the only thing she prepares kids to read is adult versions of Harry Potter. I have a feeling that's probably somewhat true... the most intellectually challenging work some of these kids may ever read is The DaVinci Code, but who knows, maybe some of them do actually get interested in literature.

Of course, I wonder how many kids do actually read the books. Part of the popularity of the Harry Potter series is, I'm sure, just being a part of it. How many kids buy the books so that they can tell their friends, "yeah, I have the new one too!" I would bet a respectable minority don't finish or even try to finish all of them.

As someone who hasn't read Harry Potter, and occassional reads literature, Harold Bloom can suck it. It's not like Harry Potter is keeping them from discovering literature or anything, and there's a chance it just might help them discover it.
posted by drezdn at 9:41 AM on December 21, 2006


Now that the kids are far enough into puberty, there needs to be a touching PG-13ish sort of juvenile almost-sex scene -- Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley stopping their bickering long enough to notice each other and sneak off for a make-out session under a staircase. Rowling could probably get that across pretty well while managing not to freak out younger kids or worried adults.

I'm not sure if I buy the idea that children's literature must "prepare" us for more difficult literature. I, for one, hardly read anything as a kid. I struggled through school and spent hours working on simple assignments.

In college, as I was being exposed to more difficult literature, that's when reading really began for me. The idea that I'm missing out because I was not adequately prepared is absurd.

There is no preparation for picking up a book of Beckett's stories or George Oppen poems. The best children's lit you can imagine wouldn't make those books easier. The only thing you need--and anyone can have it--is a willingness to sit down and read something challenging.

because the only thing she prepares kids to read is adult versions of Harry Potter.

prepares? adult versions of harry potter? what?

I don't think harry potter is all that different from other children's literature - I loved the Narnia and Oz series as a kid but I don't think they "prepared" me or that anything I got into as I got older was an "adult version" of them. I read harry potter 1-4 when I was in the hospital back then and needed something light, and they were lots of fun. The author brings a fantasy world to life, with all sorts of interesting, often funny, little details about how it relates to our world, in the classic tradition of young adult literature - whether you get to that other world by wardrobe, tornado, or platform 9 3/4.

Also, I think Rowling manages to find a balance between the somewhat sappy oz/narnia style stories, and the wickedly dark humor of my all time fave children's author, Roald Dahl. I remember John Waters saying he was always sad at the end of the Wizard of Oz, because he thought it would be so much cooler to stay in Oz and hang out with the witch and the flying monkies, than to go back to dreary old Kansas (and of course the rest of the Oz series kind of supports that notion). Roald Dahl took the opposite approach sometimes, where the protagonist wouldn't necessarily end up with a traditional happy ending (was it in The Witches that he ends up being turned into a mouse but being ok with that?). Anyway, Rowling is more middle ground, all around friendly than that, but still sticks in a few gross or funny or dark moments so that it doesn't feel like a disney story, but more like the original fairy tales (which I always loved more as a kid - I had a collection of italian fairy tales, one of russian fairy tales, one of original grimm's brothers, that were so much more interesting than the movies ever were).

For the record, I was an adult fan of the series until book 6.

THAT, however, was such a ghastly pile of crap that I didn't bother seeing the next movie and I'm not sure if I'll even read book 7.

And no, it has nothing to do with Dumbledore dying.* The whole book was just a wretched rehash of previous plot points with the only new material obviously existing SOLELY to set up the OMG HUGE BATTLE FOR T3H W0RLD in book 7.

I'm guessing the ACCURATE title for Book 7 is going to be "Harry Potter and the Pointless Fetch-Item Quest"

*OK, well, indirectly about Dumbledore dying. More like, making Snape actually evil. That was lazy plotting in the ex(treme. Plus, I liked how the early books sent the message that, "that horrible mean teacher you have isn't REALLY evil," to the kids reading it. It turns a good life lesson into a horrible one.)

Even the publishers are confused:
When asked what the title meant, a spokeswoman for Scholastic, which publishes the Potter books in the United States, admitted that people in her office had rushed to an unabridged dictionary. "[Hallows] means holy person or saint. But we really don't know what the title means," admitted Kristen Moran.

I LOVE the Harry Potter Series. I've read each one (except for the second one..which I didn't like much) at least 10 times. This is one of those things that is fashionable to dislike and dis.

However, the books are interesting, incredibly creative, entertaining, and pretty funny. (I'm not a lightweight reader-I've read roughly 80 books this year and mostly historical non-fiction.) I just think they are magical and I can't wait for my daughter to read them. They transport me to another world and the characters are wonderful.

They show that life isn't always fair and easy, the importance of friends and family and doing what you think is right, which I think are good lessons for anyone-kid or otherwise. And they're just fun to read. I'm so excited for this last book but I don't know how she's going to do it without letting people down...and there's a LOT of loose ends to close up.

InnocentBystander, after reading book 6, from my point of view it's still very much up in the air whether Snape is evil or not. Yes, he killed Dumbledore. But there's several bits that suggest Dumbledore and Snape jointly pre-arranged this outcome.

If you want a reason to hate the series (and I don't; I enjoy it, but this one underlying theme bothers me), it's not a "your mean teacher really is evil" message. It's the "people who have good parents are inevitably good, and people who have evil parents are inevitably evil" message. I'm hoping she'll turn this around in book 7--I hold out just a glimmer of hope for Draco's redemption--but I'm not holding my breath.
posted by DevilsAdvocate at 12:47 PM on December 21, 2006


Of course, I wonder how many kids do actually read the books. Part of the popularity of the Harry Potter series is, I'm sure, just being a part of it. How many kids buy the books so that they can tell their friends, "yeah, I have the new one too!" I would bet a respectable minority don't finish or even try to finish all of them.

You know, I'd say in several years, after all of the movies have been made, I bet fewer kids will read the whole series, and just opt for watching the movies. For right now, however, my daughter (10 years old) and most of her friends will devour book 7 when it comes out. (as will I)

Anyone who thinks that Snape is really evil wasn't reading Book 6 closely enough. DevilsAdvocate has a point about the whole inherited-morality thing, but at least that's not completely consistent throughout the books. Sirius Black's whole immediate family is evil, but he turned out all right.

Arguing that this sort of work is not exposing children to real literature is stupid. Forcing children to read literature just makes them think of literature as boring, and I think makes them reject classic literature as boring and stuffy in later life.

English class was often an exercise in taking what would be great literature and turning it into a boring and over analyzed piece of writing.

I read The Great Gatsby in high school, and hated it. I didn't care for the characters, I didn't understand their motivations, and we had to write boring essays about it. I reread it again this year at age 32, and was gripped by it. I understood it better, I laughed at loud during parts, I was saddened during others. It was just wonderful.

Most young readers don't have the background knowledge to appreciate literature properly. Getting children reading is good enough, and I enjoy the Potter books myself.

Sure, they're not great literature, but then not all the music I listen to is `great', and not all the food I eat is high level cuisine. For a pleasurable read they're terrific, and I feel that Rowling presented the teen characters very well, worked the plot very well across the books, and I admire her resolve to make it a neat 7 books rather than keep churning it out.

I also really like some of the lessons the book teaches. Morality is a personal responsibility. The dead are gone, there is no coming back, they live only within us. You can break rules to do right in the long term. Adults can be petty, stupid and vindictive. Politicians and the press are driven by personal feelings, and aren't always right. Loyalty to friends and personal ideals are noble and honourable. Tragedy may strike but life goes on, even though it may haunt you.

Some of those seem pretty dark, but they aren't blatant in the book, and they reflect reality well.

Ynoxas, I'd say I've read each of them at least 5 times, the earlier ones around 10 times. I can read HP & SS in a little over 2 hours. So, maybe I was overexaggerating a bit, but I've spent a lot of time loving those books. And I'm 34. :)

I agree that Snape isn't evil. He's still playing the part and that's why Dumblebore was begging him up on top of the tower. It appears that he was begging him to help him, but I think he was begging him to kill him so Snape could get closer to Voldemort and as a side benefit-put him out of his misery-cuz he was probably going to die anyway. And that's why Snape got so angry when Harry called him a coward. He's going deeper than anyone-risking more than anyone. Snape is a nasty sumbitch to Harry, but I think in the end he will be an anti-voldemort person.

I agree that it's important to get kids to read, it doesn't matter what they're reading (Same with adults-thats why I love Oprah's book club even if I think most of the books are pretty pedantic-but at least people are reading!!) I liked what Tomble said about the Great Gatsby. it's totally true. I didn't read much growing up and didn't like literature classes, but when I was 12 I discovered science fiction and started reading a book a day during the summer. Literally 30 books a month. My mom was thrilled. Sure, I'm sure she wished I wasn't reading about dragons and swords and such, but she was just so glad I was reading. And I love to read now-it's my favorite hobby.
