Geoff Bannister: 

almost complete snip of wonderful post

The transition from fairy tale to real life mirrors the journey which 
we have all experienced at times when we turn a corner in our life 
story and see the page become smudged and blotted despite our best 
sttempts to keep it clean and tidy.



Alla:

Oh, Geoff. That was beatiful. ( I know I seem to be saying it a lot 
to you lately). In fact, I was even sorry to snip your post.

I don't have a problem with Harry's journey. In fact, I think it has 
been handled amazingly well. Growing up, we do discover that world 
had more greyness than we thought earlier.

I thought I was finally clear what was my problem with "fairy tale v 
realistic issue", but now I am confused all over.

Let me try again.
I think I have a problem with text while showing some characters' 
actions as realistic, still evaluating their actions in caricature 
manner.

Let see how this interpretation will hold water.

JMO,
