"I've yet to meet a tenyearold who hasn't been entranced by its witty, complex plot and the character of the eponymous Harry" - Independent

"Spellbinding, enchanting, bewitching stuff" - Mirror

著者について

J.K. Rowling was a struggling single mother when she wrote the beginning of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, on scraps of paper at a local cafe. But her efforts soon paid off, as she received an unprecedented award from the Scottish Arts Council enabling her to finish the book. Since then, the debut novel has become an international phenomenon, garnering rave reviews and major awards, including the British Book Awards Chidren's Book of the Year and the Smarties Prize. Ms. Rowling lives in Edinburgh with her daughter.

Performer Bio: The New York Times hailed Jim Dale as "The Toast of Broadway" in his title role in the musical Barnum. He has a long list of credits on the stage and in film and was nominated for an Oscar for writing the lyrics for Georgy Girl.

ハードカバー: 640ページ
出版社: Bloomsbury Pub Ltd; Classic ed版 (2000/08)
ISBN-10: 074754624X　のレビュー。

　内容の前に、各種の版についてちょっと。ちなみに、すべてUK版についてです。US版は見てません。
　ペーパーバックがあまりにページをめくりにくい造本なので、ハードカバーを買ってみました。
　結論として、ハードカバーでも背にシワがよって、めくりやすいわけではない。さらに、ハードカバーでも用紙は再生紙で酸化して変色するし臭いも出てきます。次の巻でadult版ハードカバーを買ったのだが、やはり造本はそこそこで、背が割れるし用紙もよくないのです。つまり、ペーパーバックのほうが軽くて読みやすいということ。大事に保存したい人はボックスセットでも買うほうがいいでしょう。
　kindle版は使い慣れている人にはいいでしょう。しかし、わたしの場合、老人で適応力が衰えているせいもあるけれど、kindleに慣れるまで半年ぐらいかかりました。今まで書籍をほとんどない人が、辞書引きが便利だなどという理由でkindle版を選んでも、読みすすめるのは、そうとうきついでしょう。英語で小説を読み慣れていない方は、まず1冊か2冊ペーパーバックを買ってみることをすすめます。

　さて、内容については今さらレビューする必要もないでしょうから、簡単に少々。
　シリーズ全体では、この巻で前半終了、次から暗い重い話になります。また、この巻は今までの2倍ほどの分量で、こども向けという体裁はなくなります。UKの10代前半の読者にとっては、この分量は夏休みのプレゼントという感じで、長ければ長いほどいいのかもしれませんね。作者ローリングさんは、全体の構成もさることながら、細部を描写しはじめると止まらないという、ストーリー・テラーの典型ですね。この巻までは、映画公開もまだで、小説の読者だけへのプレゼント。じっくり楽しみましょう。

　入手したのがUK初版だったので、校閲もれのミスあり。他にもタイポは少々あるようだが、大きいミスに気づくのは、ゆっくり読んでいるわたしのような読者じゃないでしょうか。
p503, 下から8行め ; said Crouch angrily.　=== Fudgeのミス
p594, 下から8行め; 'The Imperius curse,' Moody said. ===Crouchのミス
いずれも、電子書籍版や現行の書籍では訂正されている。
なお、P579の作者自身のミス（男女が逆）はUS版では最初から訂正されているらしい。

スティーブン・フライによる朗読ＣＤ（ノーカット版）

スティーブン・フライによる朗読ＣＤ（完全版、大人用）について

ＣＤ１７枚　約２１時間
１−３巻が１０枚以内だったのを考えると、結構な枚数ですが、
聴き始めたら、あっと言う間、です。
きっと「えっ、もう終わり･･･？」と寂しくなることでしょう。

スティーブン・フライ（UK版）の声はクリアでとても聴きやすいです。
スピードはゆっくり、です。他の朗読ＣＤで聴き慣れている人には
逆に「遅い」と感じる位のスピードでしょう。
話し方も、はっきりしているので、本当に聴きやすいです。

また登場人物毎に声、話し方を変えてくれるので、最初はその演じ分けに
びっくりさせられるかも･･･
特に今回は３つの魔法学校の先生や生徒が出てきて、フランス語なまりの英語とか
色々、聴けます。楽しいですよ。

US版のジム・デールの『ハリー・ポッター』は聴いていないのですが、彼の
『クリスマス・キャロル』を聴いているので、その感じと比べると、
UK版のスティーブン・フライの方が、声・話し方ともにクリアなので、
こちらをまずはオススメします。
（ジム・デールの声がしゃがれている分、聴きにくいかも･･･）

スティーブン・フライの『ハリー・ポッター』にはまると思います。
お楽しみ下さい。

Harry's Life Gets More Complicated

2013年5月18日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

We already know from the first book that Harry is going to encounter a scary, dangerous situation while at Hogwarts - and it is all about him. (Cue Voldemort and his minions.) Each subsequent book in the series brings additional characters into the life of Harry Potter. And with them come more knowledge, more mystery and more story lines.

The fourth book of the series doesn't start out with Harry. Instead, we get a glimpse of the life of the Riddles - all who mysteriously die in the night of no determined cause. But each had a "look of terror on his or her face" and the long-time gardener overhears a plotting conversation and Harry awakes with his scar hurting. Oh boy.

"Difference of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open."

Harry is looking forward to the end of his summer and the Quidditch World Cup, between Ireland and Bulgaria. Mr. Weasley has scored the best seats in the house for the Weasley clan and Ron's two friends. However, Harry takes note of some odd things Ron's older brother Percy (now working at the Ministry of Magic) says about some peculiarities at the Ministry, as well as some other abnormal things about two heads of Ministry departments, Crouch and Bagman, and the odd disappearance of Ministry woman in the last known location of You-Know-Who. Although the Quidditch match is quite rousing, something goes horribly wrong...

Death Eaters (Voldemort's strongest supporters, cloaked and hooded) are storming the place seeking Muggle blood - and Harry, Ron and Hermione are in the wrong place at the wrong time when Voldemort's Dark Mark is cast into the sky. Ministry officials are overwhelmingly suspicious of Harry, Ron and Hermione, until they find Crouch's house-elf Winky standing in the spot where the Dark Mark was cast...with Harry's wand! Crouch immediately dismisses the terrified Winky, but raises the question in everyone's mind: Why did Crouch send Winky to save him a seat in the Top Box, where the Weasleys, Harry, Hermione, the Malfoys and other Ministry officials were seated, if he wasn't going to show up for the Quidditch match? Harry knows he has to tell Sirius, still in hiding.

Harry and Ron learn before setting off for Hogwarts that there won't be any Quidditch matches or a Cup to be won - something quite different will be happening this school year. At the feast, Dumbledore explains all: a Triwizard Tournament! A friendly competition between the three largest European schools of wizardry: Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, and Durmstrang in which in the past the death toll mounted so high that the tournament was discontinued. YIKES!

The tournament has been restricted to wizards age seventeen and older so that unprepared wizards are not at risk. It will be judged by the three headmasters of the competing schools, as well as a few other objective judges including Crouch. One representative from each school (Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang) will be selected by the Goblet of Fire to be the "champion" of their school and compete in three tasks. Yet...Harry's name is chosen as the fourth competitor! And he must compete - it's the rules! No one believes him that he didn't submit his name, and it sets a huge rift between Harry and Ron. A lot of anger lies between them, and Hermione is trying to bring them back together. Meanwhile, the whole school is angry at him, taunting him with ridiculous lies from a reporter's article, flashing POTTER STINKS buttons. Everyone's turned on Harry, and he's definitely got the feeling of being and outcast. Sirius and the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Moody, are on alert: someone put Harry's name in the Goblet of Fire - because they want him dead!

Hogwarts gets a new, but rather old, Professor for Defense Against the Dark Arts. Indeed, "Mad-Eye" Moody is quite qualified: he used to work at the Ministry as an Auror (a Dark wizard catcher). Snape avoids Mad-Eye (as well as Drumstrang's headmaster). He goes against Ministry restrictions for teaching: he wants students to be prepared for danger, and teaches students how to recognize the three Unforgivable Curses (one of which killed Harry's parents), and how to combat them. And he also highly embarrasses Malfoy in quite a humorous way. He is obviously Harry's secret champion, a fresh delight in the quite ugly and nastiness that is Snape.

They get a weird vibe from Durmstrang's headmaster, Karkaroff. They're on even higher alert when Karkaroff bursts into the dungeon during a Potions lesson. Harry fiddles and spills things to stay and overhear their conversation, with Karkaroff showing Snape something in great fear, who shushes him. And Harry finds Crouch himself ransacking Snape's office from his magical map, which he hands over to Moody. If Crouch is so sick, as the Ministry and Percy Weasley are insisting, why is he sneaking into Hogwarts? Things are not adding up....

Hermione helps arrange for Harry to meet Sirius in late November in the Gryffindor common room. And boy does Sirius have a lot to say! He shares some scary information about Karkaroff, connecting him to Voldemort, and perhaps the reason Dumbledore wanted an Auror at Hogwarts...to keep Harry safe. Sirius is very strict in asking Harry to notify him of any strange happenings, which actually happens quite frequently.

Harry and Ron do make up; being boys, they leave things unsaid but Harry is more mindful of Ron and his feelings. The gang work together to help Harry complete the last two tasks. Harry gets in the good graces of Beauxbatons champion Fleur, and Karkaroff, is continually unfair in his judging marks for Harry's tasks.

All the while, Hermione is hellbent on advocating for house-elves, who are basically slaves. But they're delighted about their work, which Hermione doesn't understand. Dobby and Mr. Crouch's formerly employed Winky come to work at Hogwarts, and Winky reveals that Crouch has some rather dark secrets. Winky upholds that she won't reveal them, and insists that Mr. Bagman is a bad man....but toward the end of the book we find out that Bagman and Crouch are kind of enemies and exactly what kind of secrets Winky has been keeping.

During Voldemort's powerful time, Crouch was an avid prosecutor of his supporters - he was definitely on a manhunt. Harry gets the full experience of Crouch coldly sending his only child, his only son, to Azkaban without a trial, without an explanation as to how he got swept into the Dark Arts. Some insisted he was at the wrong place at the wrong time, which even Harry has been accused of...and which a young Bagman was also accused of. But his popularity as an England Quidditch player roused sympathy and support, which eliminated his connection with Voldemort. Crouch was none too happy that his peers let Bagman walk free. Indeed, throughout the entire book, play goes back and forth between Bagman and Crouch making readers think one is connected with Voldemort, who we learn some interesting information about. Harry also finds out who some of the other Death Eaters are, and is very surprised to find one of them is a professor at Hogwarts!

During the final task, Harry saves Cedric's butt a couple of times...and they find that Durmstrang's champion is not what he seems. Harry is badly hurt, and he and Cedric make a monumental decision as to the outcome of the winning champion. And what they get is not at all what they expected, as Harry comes face to face with Voldemort again. And this time Voldemort's out for blood - Harry's - and death.

The ending is QUITE twisted - readers will definitely be thrown for a loop as all comes together and is explained. It is quite a lot, but brings Sirius to Harry's side...and dually he reveals himself to Mrs. Weasley and Snape. Snape and Sirius unceremoniously agree to disagree over their tangled past at Dumbledore's urging, and to help Harry and the wizarding world.

Dumbledore sends Snape off on a covert task, that will be revealed in a later book. Sirius is sent to rally "the old gang." Mr. Weasley is called upon to reach out to contacts in the Ministry who won't turn a blind eye to the fact that Voldemort is back - and many within the Ministry who were cleared so many years ago are indeed still supporting the murderous Dark Lord.

One thing of great note that's different from the other books so far is that readers get more exposure to Harry's inner thoughts - he wants to enter the Triwizard Tournament, he wants to cast an Unforgivable Curse on Snape, etc. This is probably due in large part to the volatile amount of anger Harry has, especially toward Ron, and feeling as if everyone at Hogwarts hates him.

Also of important note is the growing crush of Hermione and Ron. Ron is extremely jealous of Hermoine, how she spends her time and who she spends it with. It will be interesting to see if this continues throughout the series or if Hermione decides she's had enough of Ron's oafish ways.

Of the series so far, I think I enjoyed this book the most. It was quite a bit longer, but I loved the entire idea wrapped up in this book - Rowling did some thorough planning and dropped hints at just the right times. If you've never read the Harry Potter series, I highly encourage you to do so. It is truly an enjoyable (and easy) read.

Check out what Harry, Ron and Hermione will run into in the next book, Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix .

A Turning Point in the Series

2023年4月11日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

Title: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Author: J.K. Rowling
Publication Date: July 8, 2000
Publisher: Bloomsbury (UK) / Scholastic (US)

Review:

"Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" is the fourth entry in J.K. Rowling's acclaimed Harry Potter series, and it continues to showcase her talent for world-building, character development, and storytelling. In this installment, the author takes the series in a slightly darker and more mature direction, while maintaining the sense of wonder and adventure that has captivated readers of all ages.

Pros:

World-building: Rowling's magical world expands even further in this book, introducing readers to new aspects of the wizarding world and its rich history. The book delves into the traditions and customs of different magical schools, offering a broader perspective on the world in which the story is set.

Character development: The characters continue to grow and evolve in "The Goblet of Fire." The protagonists are faced with new challenges and responsibilities, both magical and personal, which test their relationships and force them to mature. Rowling skillfully explores the nuances of friendship, loyalty, and trust as the characters navigate these challenges.

Pacing: The novel is well-paced, with moments of suspense and excitement balanced by quieter, character-driven scenes. The story is engaging and immersive, keeping readers eager to find out what happens next without feeling rushed or overwhelming.

Social commentary: Rowling touches on important themes such as prejudice, discrimination, and power dynamics, adding depth and complexity to the story. These themes are relevant and thought-provoking, encouraging readers to consider their implications beyond the realm of the story.

Cons:

Length: Some readers may find the book's length intimidating or feel that certain sections could have been trimmed. However, the richness of the story and the depth of the world-building largely justifies the book's length.

Tone shift: The darker and more mature themes in "The Goblet of Fire" may not resonate with all readers, especially younger fans of the series. While the shift in tone is a natural progression for the story and characters, some may prefer the lighter, more whimsical atmosphere of the earlier books.

Complexity: The plot of "The Goblet of Fire" is more intricate than the previous installments, which may be confusing or off-putting for some readers. However, many fans appreciate the complexity, as it adds depth and intrigue to the story.

Overall, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" is an engaging and compelling entry in the series, with a rich and immersive narrative that showcases J.K. Rowling's storytelling prowess. While the darker tone and increased complexity may not appeal to all readers, the novel successfully balances these elements with the charm and wonder that have made the series so beloved

As with the three earlier books in the Potter series, if memory serves correctly this is my third time through Goblet. I've read it twice, and now listened to it on cd. Overall, I still love the story and the way it basically changed everything. While Prisoner of Azkaban, my favorite Potter book (and movie, to date), was a bit darker than its predecessors, the danger still felt a little bit removed and the book still maintained a somewhat lighter tone. With Goblet, Rowling turns Harry's world upside down and almost from the start the book feels darker; the joy and wonder of the Quidditch World Cup, people tend to forget, is preceded by Harry "dreaming" about Lord Voldemort killing a Muggle and beginning his return to power. The bad stuff doesn't start with the Death Eaters and the Dark Mark at the Cup, but it certainly escalates from that point.

Experiencing the book for the third time, I was once again struck by how well Rowling builds on earlier throw-away comments and sets the stage for the later books. She allows her teen characters to grow, while most of her adult characters remain infuriatingly predictable. We can see Hagrid's blast-ended skrewt experiment ending badly before it even begins, and we know Hagrid will have at least one "I should not have told you that" moment; Dumbledore will be so focused on keeping Harry safe that he will neglect to share the very information Harry needs to make the smart decisions that will keep him safe; McGonagall will be stern and motherly at the same time; Snape will have those one or two moments where he vaguely threatens Harry and obstructs Harry's path but will ultimately not be a major part of the storyline .... except that, while all of that happens, Rowling actually gives us reasons this time. We get a bit more of Hagrid's history, we get to see just why Dumbledore is so distracted, and we start to see the Snape of the movies. In the first three books, Snape is a speedbump in the road and not much more. In this book, Snape quite literally is indirectly responsible for a character's death (had he not delayed Harry from seeing Dumbledore, Barty Crouch Sr might not have died) and in the final pages we see that he is going to be more than just a menacing teacher from this point on. Rowling expands even the secondary characters' roles (with the Madame Maxime subplot for Hagrid, and the heightened involvement of the adult Weasleys), and her page count expands to accommodate that change in story-style.

She also introduces at least one intriguing new character: Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody. Moody quickly became a favorite character of mine, and remains so. Even after what I think is one of the best plot twists in the Potter series (if not all of series fiction). Listening to the book, I found myself even more attentive to Moody's scenes than I am when I'm rereading the book. And yes, the clues are all there early on, once you know where to look.

Some people have said that upon rereading Goblet, the teen relationship angst comes across as more forced than on the first read. I didn't find that to be so. Because while spurned feelings and requited attractions motivate the characters at various points, those emotions are still not the main plot (unlike at least one other YA urban fantasy series of great popularity, or so I've been told). Harry's interest in Cho and jealousy of Cedric, Ron's jealousy of Hermione and Krum, the poor Patil sisters stuck with dates who won't even pretend they're interested, even the ease with which Fred (or is it George) asks Angelina (or it is Katie) to the Ball ... all of this fits into the book as fine character work and subplot without taking our attention away from the main plots: the Tri-Wizard Tournament and the Return of Voldemort.

Unfortunately, there is one spbplot that annoyed me on the initial reading, annoyed me again when I reread the book, and still annoys me listening to the book. As wonderful a reader as Jim Dale is (and he is stretched to prove himself in this book, not only due to the length but due to the number of speaking characters to be interpreted), even he cannot generate any interest or excitement in the SPEW sub-plot. Way too much time is spent for a subplot that is ultimately dropped mid-book and not revisited in any of the remaining books. Yes, it's an important development for Hermione's character that she takes up the mantle of gaining equality for a down-trodden race. And yes, I'm sure in adulthood she worked tirelessly at the Ministry to finally get house elves the respect they deserve. But an already long novel could have been 50 pages shorter if Hermione's Crusade had been cut out or at least mentioned less frequently. Perhaps my largest disappointment of the Potter series is that this major subplot ultimately went nowhere. (I can foresee certain arguments having to do with events in Half-Blood Prince which were cut from the movie version, and in Deathly Hallows. I would ask that if you feel the urge to debate me / tell me I'm wrong, you try to be as vague as possible. I know of at least one person reading this blog regularly who has not read the books and so far has managed to not have any of the major events of DH spoiled for him before the movie comes out (which he will see opening weekend, as he has every other Potter movie, I'm sure).

I could natter on for pages yet, I'm sure. I haven't talked about the representation of sensationalist media in the form of Rita Skeeter. I haven't talked about Karkaroff and Krum, or the concept of other nation's schools of magic (I've always wondered why Rowling didn't use an American school, since the books were already selling so well over here. Might have been a nice nod to her American fans. Then again, the portrayal may have been unflattering.) But this is a review, not an essay. Overall, Goblet is my second-favorite book in the Potter series. Great character development, great new characters introduced, lots of groundwork laid for the second half of the series and especially for the next book.

For those of us who still enjoy actual books, this does the job. This one is 734 pages, black and white, medium sized print, with 2" illustrations at the start of each chapter. Unedited, contains the English spellings. My 9yo did not have trouble reading the book, but they have also seen the movies.
