- This lesson looks at how J.K. Rowling guides the reader's eye in the opening of the Godric's Hollow sequence in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. We also look at how she uses language to create a particularly gothic balance of beauty and dread. We rewrite a single paragraph, looking at each clause in detail, and end with a checkpoint piece.
