Article Title
"Because I'm a Girl, I Suppose!":Gender Lines and NarrativePerspective in Harry Potter
Abstract
Explores one of the interesting challenges in reading the Harry Potter series: the reader must eventually face the fact that Harry is not a totally reliable narrator or viewpoint character, especially as far as the female characters closest to him are concerned. Hermione especially suffers from his “teenage boy myopia.”
