New Harry Potter Cover!
The important news of the day of course is the release of the cover art for the new Harry Potter books:
This inspired The Anchoress to make a very interesting point:
Voldemort’s weak point is the weak point of tyrants, despots and needy, eternal politicians from time immemorial: he wants to be loved - desperately, unequivocally - but his whole concept of love is so distorted that he can only accept (or define and acknowledge) that love as it is expressed through the roar (or fear) of an acquiescent people, and lived within the offices of power.
There is a lot of truth in that I believe, and probably something we should often keep in mind.
Dase: happy to be back. How’ve you been? I’ve never read Harry Potter. My wife has read most of the series, some of the books in Hebrew, one in English and the rest in Russian. I could never get into it for some reason, though. Will be in touch,
Greg.
