One of the most beloved stories in history, J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series topped the best-seller charts and inspired the highest-grossing film series of all time. But what is it about this story that has ignited such fandom and struck such a chord with people around the world? As English professor, culture critic, and Potter devotee Greg Garrett explains, these novels not only entertain but teach deeply held truths about ourselves, others, and the world around us. Unlocking the thematic intricacies behind the Harry Potter narrative, Garrett reveals Rowling's magical formula-one that, he contends, earns her a place right next to the literary giants of old.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    A timely, intelligent and interesting addition to the books on the Harry Potter phenomena. Rowling's Harry Potter series has consistently topped the bestseller charts as each new book arrived, and inspired a blockbuster film series that concluded in 2011, and has now gone on to produce it’s own website which is the only place one can buy Ebook versions of the books, so the question surely must be what is it about these stories that has captured the public’s attention and caused this reaction? Greg Garrett contends that it is because the stories follow deeply rooted narratives and moral themes that resonate with us, others, and the world around us. It’s a wonderfully written, easy to follow, semi-academic work with some amazingly well drawn parallels between existing literature, religious thought and philosophical insight. Definitely a book for any Potter fan, but more than that it’s a great book for anyone wanting to understand what makes for a good story.
