Bok av Bell Christopher E Bell
The social relations, societal structures and existential conundrums in the world of the Harry Potter novels reflect our own.

The economic inequities of the wizarding world mirror those of modern societies. The art, literature and mass media of wizard society reveal our own deep-rooted fears. Harry's world is our world. This collection presents new essays by contributors across a range of disciplines, bringing fresh perspectives on one of the most influential texts in modern history.
