24: Fantastic Beasts(??) And How To Classify Them


Listen Later

CW brief discussion of family death / child death / parents mourning around 57:00-59:00

We get into the nitty gritty of some super depressing aspects of these chapters. Are Veela or leprechauns beings or beasts? What was JKR thinking when she wrote about house elves? How do you reconcile the horrible choices of JKR with the memories, and reality, of loving this series? How many people did the Veela out at the Quidditch World Cup? Why can’t Harry just be a professional Quidditch player?
