53 min - 708: Helene is the New Shakespeare (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter 8)
This week, we talk about the politics of customs and superficiality in Chapter 8 of DH, which is all about Bill and Fleur's wedding. We talk about the difference between the muggle and wizarding weddings, how some characters are obsessed with how things look (rather than how they are), and theorize what could have slipped through the security measures for the wedding (could Lucius Malfoy have impersonated Muriel? Quite possibly!).
