Ha!! And with all the problems Harry's had with the press, can you imagine Rita Skeeter providing play-by-play?
That's beautiful. Or taken literally, incredibly gross.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Yes, they are looking and gesturing at something off-picture. . . the newly arisen DUMBLEDORE, perhaps?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Wait a sec ...
They're behind a curtain.
Could it be The Curtain and the gallery are the souls that are Behind The Curtain??

Could it be The Curtain
Oooo, good call, Empress.
edit: What must it be like to be the artist for these things: "Make it interesting! But don't give anything away!"

No shit.
Eventually, I'd just repaint the damn thing with "HE'S FECKING DEAD" on the cover and put crosses over Harry's eyes.

Ooh, that is a good call.
In non-HP book news, Oprah has chosen Cormac McCarthy's The Road for her next book. I haven't read it but I have read some of his work -- this strikes me as an unusual choice for her.

Okay, this made me almost spit broccoli on my monitor!
Also, I like the idea of the curtain being The Curtain.
But then Chatty!Co-Worker and I came up with an alternate scenario -- Harry and Voldemort are appearing in a musical, and the curtains are just theatre curtains.
I mean, look at them. Those are CLEARLY musical theatre poses. (Voldemort is more or less doing the Stop! In The Name of Love pose, and Harry kind of has an Oh, What A Beautiful Mornin' thing going on there. What? Look at the cover again -- there's CLEARLY a bright golden haze on the hallows.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Harry and Voldemort are appearing in a musical, and the curtains are just theatre curtains.
Someone sent me a link to their fic once, in which (if I can clearly remember the horrifying details) the Hogwarts students put on a musical. Snape sang "Music of the Night" to Harry.

I think I read that, Dana. It was scary.
