I reckon having that much suddenly hit you would make it hard for the reality to sink in, and your immediate perspective would be of it all being surreal and not quite genuine. And of course, although Harry did know them well, he's also being bombarded with the sheer number of others that have died or suffered. So I thought it was rather a good addition to the ways of writing different ways of encountering death.Susie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05117599157730842075noreply@blogger.com
