我未把結局看畢,可是也敢說Harry Potter小說內容雖是魔法世界的故事,卻是透過兒童的幻想世界對現實的描寫:好人全部死哂,壞人統治世界。
看到這系列的最後一本小說,還有七至八個chapters才看畢,發現Harry Potter series比我想像中更富價值!J.K.Rowling,唔只兒童小說家咁簡單。
自Daily Prophet等報章雜誌被Death Eaters掌權後,就如現實中濫用傳媒力量及公眾信任的傳播媒體,對Dumbledore作出種種不實報導、引起各種無意義的猜測,目的是打散魔法界市 民信心、讓他們不得不屈服於Dark Lord之下。Dumbledore希望Harry為他延續的,正是這個不公社會中各人需要學到的高尚品格、遠見及智慧。There're things truly larger than life.
Harry,不管你會否成功,只要奮力戰鬥到底,拒向惡勢力低頭,Dumbledore才不致枉死!
以下是Harry自覺得被Dumbledore瞞騙以後,從Aberforth口中得知未知真相的一節(Harry,我係你的話一定勁慚愧,竟然懷疑自己對Dumbledore的信任!)未看過這節內容的讀者,請在繼續scroll下去前先三思。
" …… 'He (Dumbledore) thought he was watching Grindelward hurting you and Ariana … it was torture to him, if you'd seen him then, you wouldn't say he was free.'
Aberforth seemed lost in contemplation of his own knotted and veined hands. After a long pause, he said, 'How can you be sure, Potter, that my brother wasn't more interested in the greater good than in you? How can you be sure you aren't dispensable, just like my little sister?'
A shard of ice seemed to pierce Harry's heart.
'I don't believe it. Dumbledore loved Harry,' said Hermione.
'Why didn't he tell him to hide, then?' shot back Aberforth. 'Why didn't he say to him, take care of yourself, here's how to survive?'
'Because,' said Harry, before Hermione could answer, 'sometimes you've got to think about the greater good! This is war!'
'You're seventeen, boy!'
'I'm of age, and I'm going to keep fighting even if you've given up!'
'Who says I've given up?'
' "The Order of the Phoenix is finished," ' Harry repeated. ' "You-Know-Who's won, it's over, and anyone who's pretending different's kidding themselves." '
'I don't say I like it, but it's the truth!'
'No, it isn't,' said Harry. 'Your brother knew how to finish You-Know-Who and he passed the knowledge on to me. I'm going to keep going until I succeed - or I die. Don't think I don't know how this might end. I've known it for years.' …… "
