...forgive those occasional lapses (and the occasional overwrought speech of Dumbledore) because Rowling has more important things to focus on. It probably does all does boil down to love, like Dumbledore said, but that turns out to be a more complicated proposition than you might think. For Rowling, love is not just a “force” to be accessed in order to turn on your light saber, something some of us have been blessed with and others born without; it can also be a choice, an impediment, and even—we are led to believe?...
