Шон Смит - Биография создателя Гарри Поттера Дж. К. Ролинг, написанная Шоном Смитом

Одна лишь Джоанна знает ответы на все эти вопросы. Теперь ей предстоит нелегкая задача — не разочаровать своих поклонников. И еще мне интересно: что напишет Дж. К. Ролинг после завершения «Гарри Поттера»? Ее ничто не обязывает в будущем к публикации своих произведений. Если даже она не напишет больше ни строчки, «Гарри Поттер» навсегда останется свидетельством ее непревзойденного дарования. Ральф Вальдо Эмерсон писал: «Чтобы стать писателем, одного таланта недостаточно. За книгой должна стоять личность». За Дж. К. Ролинг — автором стоит Джоанна Ролинг — женщина. Возможно, немного робкая и временами несдержанная, но очень страстная женщина со стальной волей. Годы лишений — нищета, депрессия, неудавшийся брак, болезнь и смерть матери — закалили ее личность и придали отточенность ее таланту.

И в конце концов, благодаря любви и поддержке друзей и семьи, благодаря дочери Джессике и мальчику-волшебнику по имени Гарри Поттер она одержала победу.
