‘No Muggle Prime Minister has ever set foot in the Ministry of Magic, for reasons most succinctly summed up by ex-Minister Dugald McPhail (term of office 1858-1865): “their puir wee braines couldnae cope wi’ it.”’ – J.K. Rowling
Pottermore Presents is a collection of J.K. Rowling’s writing from the Pottermore archives: short reads originally featured on pottermore.com with some exclusive new additions.

Rowling reveals her inspiration, intricate details of characters’ lives and surprises from the wizarding world.

Pottermore上小文章的閤輯。
評分不要強求羅琳寫政治!一方麵,例如黑魔勢力三度抬頭之曆史背景,曆屆部長與民心所嚮,或者魔法部的三權分立問題,都太過苛求——她本就擅長輕鬆諷刺如the Quibbler, 而非建立起真正脫齣兒童文學、接近現實的世界觀。另外一方麵,她的白左立場有時也太過明顯瞭,我喜歡這些故事和裏麵亮閃閃的價值,但很難接受過於膚淺的用以達到價值的手段。總而言之,我長大瞭,這有一點點讓人難過。
評分I can teach you to bottle fame, brew glory, even stopper death…
評分如果是十幾年前讀我也許會把魔法部長更替錶和英首相還有皇室譜係畫個對比圖…
評分印象最深的是製作魔藥需要slow burning的性格。在對抗伏地魔上,斯內普隱忍瞭17年。
