So I did. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 19/09/2010 06:35:10 PM
It is established that Harry does not read the Prophet, he merely throws it away after looking at the front page. He is so busy looking for news, he does not see the news developing: that he (and Dumbledore) is becoming persona non grata. This appeals to me. I like things being discernible from early on.

Heh. Makes you feel smart?

The dreams about the corridors and locked doors are very subtly introduced and buried (or explained away) already on page 14.

Very clever indeed.

It is also interesting (to me, anyway) that Harry's annoyance springs from being in the same position as the reader at the beginning of the book. He is given tantalising hints of big things going on, but is as yet unable to take part.

Part of his annoyance anyway. I think a lot of it is that he isn't being treated differently after the horror that he saw in the graveyard. As far as he can see, no one seems to care about what he went through, and no one seems to care that he might not be safe with the Dursleys (or so he thinks). It's pretty understandable annoyance, I think. He should really be kept close by Dumbledore or the Weasleys but he isn't. We only know the real story because we're re-reading the book. :P

For future reference: it is established that a secret keeper can transmit the secret through writing. This may be relevant to figuring out whether it was the Potters themselves or just their house that was hidden. But it may not be.

Ah, guesswork is fun!
