<belijako at o...> wrote about Bellatrix's potential appeal:
"Compare it with Ollivander's words about Voldemort: He was truly
fascinated by Voldie's power and skills even though he used them
badly. Likewise it's possible to be intrigued (just in passing) by a
powerful, once beautiful but now evil woman..."
Well, Mr Ollivander
I have a problem with that guy. I don't know
where to put him on the chessboard. Of course I know that no one can
be only black or only white, and that ambiguity is a huge part of
JKR's writing style.
What is Mr Ollivander's true incidence on what happens to Harry? How
can we interpret his prodigious memory? How can we interpret his
pernickety behaviour during the weighing of the wands? How much does
he know?
Could he be the Organ Grinder? I just don't understand how the
character works, and it bothers me.
Any thoughts?
Amicalement,
Iris
