Nick shares the London institution of the (k)night bus. Part drunk carriage, part dormitory for the homeless in foul weather, zig-zaging across London between midnight and five in the morning. John shares the Parallel Series Idea (PSI) and compare Prisoner of Azkaban with Robert Galbraith’s Career of Evil.

The original post for this episode at the Hogwarts Professor Substack site comes with notes for the program. The index to the 31 Kanreki posts for easy reference to all the posts can be found here. Enjoy!

After yesterday’s introduction to the taxonomy of Rowling Studies — the Lake Four Pillars, the Seven Shed Tools, and the Twelve Golden Threads — today Nick and John apply one pillar and one tool to Rowling’s first published wotk, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. Enjoy!

The Four ‘Lake’ Pillars of understanding Jo Rowling, the Seven Shed Tools she uses, the Twelve golden Threads — Nick Jeffery and I launched our month long series of Lake and Shed readings on 1 July last year with the engaging introduction above.

Enjoy!
