Abstract
Abstract: J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series is renowned for its magical story about adventure, friendship, and love, drawing extensively from the school story and bildungsroman literary traditions. However, the novels are most significantly, as the author herself states, focused on death, and therefore, offer a larger narrative of profound grief. Drawing from both literary and psychological studies, this article examines Harry's emotional growth as he experiences and copes with loss. It argues that Harry's grief narrative can be a source of bibliotherapy to readers as they navigate their own real-life trauma and bereavement.
