Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. An incredible adventure is about to begin!
Having become classics of our time, the Harry Potter stories never fail to bring comfort and escapism. With their message of hope, belonging and the enduring power of truth and love, the story of the Boy Who Lived continues to delight generations of new listeners.

Tuttua ja turvallista velhoilua

Harry Potter.
Nyt kun esittelyt on tehty, voimme siirtyä itse kirjaan. Nykysilmin katsottuna tämä vaikuttaa viattomalta: helppolukuista kirjallisuutta lapsille, jossa hyvyys voittaa pahuuden, oikeus päihittää vääryyden ja muita välttämättömiä valkoisia valheita, joita kerrotaan lapsille. Tässä ollaan enemmän velkaa Roald Dahlin saduille kuin fantasiakirjallisuuden kaavamaisuuksille. En siten ihmettele, että tästä puhuttiin aikoinaan kirjallisuuden pelastajana kun tämä sai lapset (tai enemmänkin heidän vanhempansa) lukemaan. Vanhemmilla kun on suuremmat edellytykset valita lastensa kirjat, joten kirjan sisältö läpäisee helposti valtaosan hajutestin.
Omalta osaltani Viisasten kivi oli kohtalaisen helppolukuinen lukukokemus. Kerronnassa on useita nuorisokirjallisuuden kliseitä, että niihin tottuneet saanevat turvareaktion. Käänteet olivat joko ennakoitavissa kaukaa tai sitten väkinäisen oloisia. Ei tässä mitään suurempaa vikaa ole, mutta olisiko tämä syrjäyttänyt nuoruuteni Tolkienin Hobitin, sitä epäilen suuresti.
