It’s the English class you didn't know you missed and the meaningful conversations you didn't know you craved. Join Vanessa Zoltan and Casper ter Kuile as they bring thought, reflection and laughter to Harry Potter; not just as novels, but as instructive and inspirational texts that will teach us about our own lives. Relive the magic chapter by chapter as they explore themes such as commitment, revenge and forgiveness. This podcast creates time in your week to think about life’s big questions. Because reading fiction doesn’t just help us escape the world, it helps us live in it.

Memory: The Noble and Most Ancient House of Black (Book 5, Chapter 6)

September 27, 2018 00:34:54

Vanessa and Casper examine the theme of “memory” in chapter six of “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.” This week we discuss Kreacher’s institutional memory, Sirius’s family tapestry, and whether or not you should cut an ex out of a photo. Our question this week is: what’s the difference between a memory and a record?

Next week we’re reading chapter seven, The Ministry of Magic, through the theme of Progress. Thanks this week to Rae Muhlstock for our voicemail.
