And that for me is what literature should be. That for me has always been a metaphor for a library. I recall the beautiful image from CS Lewis where there are the pools, the ‘world between worlds’, and you can jump into the different pools to access the different worlds. The Hogwart's library has many occult books and the golden trio spend much time there, studying and sneaking. ![]() ![]() For former teacher Rowling 'nice' is her barometer of civility, she once publicly chastised her agent Christopher Little over it.Ĭhristopher, nettled by rejection, was on a rant shaming editors who'd rejected the Philosopher's Stone, the blow of turning down Harry Potter already wasn't the high point of their careers, so Rowling interceded "do you think that's nice? I don't think that's nice".
