hey travis! I saw you at prophecy, I attended your Voldemort and Phoenix lectures and LOVED them so I came to visit your site and listen to your pubcasts and I just finished listening to this second segment of the Narnia one and I just wanted to say I’m SOOOO glad someone finally agrees with me about the Susan issue! I’ve always thought it was more of a comment on her growing up, not being imaginative anymore and becoming a part of the materialistic “real” world and wasn’t even aware that it could mean she was becoming sexual until I talked to other people about it and they said that’s what they thought it meant. I totally disagreed with Rowling when she said that as well, and I’m glad someone else does too! I love your theories and comparisons, they’re so interesting and directly related to my own theories and connections I make with the HP books and others (I LOVE the narnia series as well, and Tolkien’s LOTR is by far my favourite series ever, though HP is a VERY close second!) I can’t wait to listen to the rest of the pubcasts!
