Elvis! Sectus etc
Feb. 3rd, 2007 12:38 pmWas utterly delighted to discover via a leaky cauldron link to a Gaurdian article on translating the HP books that because I am Lord Voldemort translates as Je suis something or other he isn't Tom Marvolo Riddle but Tom Elvis Jodusor. So that would be "Tom after my father, Elvis after my grandfather." So maybe it really was Elvis on the grassy knoll, Elvis Gaunt. Not sure quite why I find this so amusing but hey ho.
And so Deathly Hallows is going to come out in the middle of Sectus. I just wouldn't be able to, or want to really, read the whole thing in a few hours overnight from midnight. So I am worried about being spoilered, even though the Sectus people are doing their best to avoid this for people like me, because you're almost bound to overhear something someones says at lunch or something. And while there is a part of me that is so desperate for Harry not to die that I'll want to check the end before I read the whole thing, I am going to try very hard not to because it would be a shame not to see the story unfold properly. It's funny isn't it because a reread isn't diminished by knowing what happens, in fact I usually find I miss a lot the first time, nuances etc.
