I snipped your whole post, because I wanted to ask you to clarify
this one point.
Could you explain to me how you drew the conclusion that JKR has a
death neurosis? I mean, maybe she does, I don't know, I am just
curious what in the books gave you that idea.
I vaguely recall that you mention the interview that made you think
that? Am I misremembering? Do you have the link if this interview
indeed exists?
But of course I am mostly interested about the reasons in the books
that made you drew this conclusion. I am assuming that it is based
on the way JKR portrays death, so what is it?
I mean it is not a fear of death, right? DD famously talks about
death as next great adventure, etc, so what is it?
Thanks :)
Alla
