Our next meeting is this Thursday, November 9th, @ 6pm at the Robasciotti's
Goblet of Fire starts very differently than any of the other books. For starters, we spend the first chapter looking at the story from someone else's perspective- not Harry's. Now, yes, I know we did that with the first chapter of Sorcerer's Stone-but, that was to introduce us to the entire WORLD of Harry, and Harry himself. This time, it's to show us something of our villian; his life, his history, where he is NOW. We left off at our last meeting with a short discussion of Professor Trelawny's prediction at the end of Prisoner of Azkaban:..."the servant will break free and set out to rejoin his master. The dark lord will rise again with his servant's aid, greater and more terrible than ever he was."
Well, now, the master seems to be back, but why is Harry dreaming about him? And who are those horrible creeps at the Quidditch World Cup who think it's fun to be cruel to muggles? This, and so much more- like our new characters, poker-stiff-Mr. Crouch, lazy and loose, Mr. Bagman, and Mad-Eye Moody, our new paranoid Professor- all for us to talk about this week! Be sure and have a look at the blog's schedule page to check on your reading assignment! See you Thursday!
