Impossibility: The Forest Again (Book 7, Chapter 34)

Impossibility: The Forest Again (Book 7, Chapter 34)

This week, Casper and Vanessa explore the theme of Impossibility in Chapter 34 of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! They discuss Voldemort’s understanding of Harry, the Resurrection Stone, and Neville! Throughout the episode we consider the question: when do we resign ourselves to perceived impossibility and when do we decide to fight it?


Thank you to Emma for this week’s voicemail! Next week we're reading Chapter 35, Kings Cross, through the theme of Sympathy.
