J.K. Rowling 2012 Interview - Harry Potter: Beyond the Page [High Res] 

Harry Potter definitely was a light in the dark for me

in 2023 harry potter is still being read. and not only by children.

I wish I could have the whole series read by her.

Hearing J.K read her own story is just... unreal!

I'm 40 this year and I was 18 when the first film came out. Now my kids are teenagers and love these stories. It's very weird to have them love something so much that came from my childhood because kids usually think that stuff that was around when their parents were younger is boring. I don't think these stories will ever age.

Before the world went mad.

God I adore this woman, what a delight to have grown up with her imagination and charm. Very blessed.

She is so good at describing things and making the reader visualize every detail from her words on paper.

I can just feel an inner Princess Diana within JK Rowling. The same humbleness, shyness, but courage and guts to do what they believe in. Both beautiful women.

It would be awesome if JK Rowling recorded audiobooks for all 7 novels and published them, she reads them so well!

I must commend the interviewer. He was genuinely engaged, full of excitement and with well prepared questions. The answers from Rowling were also extremely helpful for people attempting to write their own stories. Also, I somehow missed the hints that Hagrid's broken wand is inside his umbrella - which explains how it does magic.

the look on the interviewer's face as she reads is pure joy, beautiful to see!

I'll tell you why her books have sold in such epic proportions, it's because her imagination swept us all away.

If she would have read the rest of this book and all other 6 right there I wouldve been here for it

J. K Rowling is my role model in story writting during lockdown I have made Audio stories my 1st audio story was called two birds and my family and friends loved it. I would like to thank J.k Rowling for that as she inspires me to write stories

Rowling is such a brilliant person. Hearing her read that segment was beautiful.

J.k.Rowling is the William Shakespeare of the 20th. Century .

This lady should record a reading of the series herself. That would be a treasure. The world is missing something by not having this.

What a wonderful reading by a once in a lifetime author. While Rowling reads, it's easy to understand why Harry Potter is such an immersive, successful series. Simple and enlightening--full of interesting details and melodic prose, her books strike a cord in the soul of us all. Thank you, J.K. Rowling.

Massive respect for writers
