Synopsis
Harry Potter for Nerds II Occupy Hogwarts! Do you see the revolutionary potential of Harry Potter? Where would you stand in the Battle of Hogwarts? Readers who appreciate J.K. Rowling's messages about political and social repression, and about the empowering qualities of empathy, invisibility, and transformative love, will discover inspiration in the latest compilation of essays from editors Kathryn N. McDaniel and Travis Prinzi. Fans of the first Harry Potter for Nerds will find this second volume packed with literary studies of favorite characters, like Remus Lupin, Dobby, Nearly Headless Nick, and the Weasley Twins. And they will also encounter political, economic, and philosophical analyses that explore the problems of our world and point to Rowling's belief in the "power of the powerless" when it comes to solving them. From Squibs to house-elves, from ghosts to young wizards-in-training and even wands and Snitches, the authors in this volume find power in unexpected places. Most of all, they demonstrate the power of expert readers to apply fantasy to the real world in ways that liberate, delight, and inspire.

Review
If you want to extend your knowledge of the meaning and depth of the Hogwarts Saga, look no further than Harry Potter For Nerds 2. Why is Remus Lupin such an appealing character?

If you love Harry Potter, For Nerds II is the book for you.

Harry Potter For Nerds 2 is a seismic event in today's earth-shaking revolution in Potter Studies, with brilliant new looks at favorite characters and Wizarding World elements that tell us as much about ourselves and Muggle existence as they do Rowling's imaginative world. For Serious Readers of Harry Potter, this is essential reading for greater understanding of the Hogwarts Saga, powerful scholarship in conversational language that delivers insight after insight.
